Etsy Find: Talking Squid Recycles Tees

avocado Etsy Find: Talking Squid Recycles TeesTalking Squid is not just saving the planet by recycling t-shirts, they’re also helping you save money with their huge 50% off summer sale.  Yup, half off!  So, what could you spend half as much on??  Well, they’ve got an outstanding assortment of rugs and pillows made of hand dyed old tees that are hand sewn onto canvas.  I’m totally digging this green number that is so reminiscent of grass that it makes me swoon!  Talk about bringing the outdoors in…  I’d love to have this rug for right in front of the kitchen sink.  Soft and cozy on mama’s tender tootsies after a long day of chasing those kiddos.

pompom Etsy Find: Talking Squid Recycles TeesTheir pom pom pillows can really help spruce up a boring couch as well.  I can only imagine how soft and comfy these pillows would be — just as soft and comfy as your old favorite tee that’s perfectly worn in.  They’d also be great in a reading nook, bedroom or kid’s playspace.  Can anyone say pillow fight??  lol  My kids would be fighting over who would get the pom pom in the great continuing saga of Pillow Fight Wars 2011.  Yup, we are rampant pillow fighters around here.  Only to be interrupted by the occasional tickle fight.

These are a great way to repurpose all of those old tees that clog up vintage clothing stores and even worse, landfills.  Stylish, classy, soft and fun…Definitely worth checking out for your Christmas shopping this year!!
