Discover Recycling and Restoration

Discover Recycling and Restoration by Pascale d’Erm Synopsis Recycling is one of the major issues in contemporary ecology. Combined with the economic crisis and the fun of antiques, recycling and restoration is suddenly a craze! But are recycled objects necessarily the best and cheapest? What alternative products are suitable for DIY use? How to locate and select the "treasures of the sidewalks" and other materials that have fallen into oblivion? Should we recover objects in hardwood? What will be the cult objects of recycling in the future? How does nature inspire us? These are some of the questions raised in this short environmentally-sound recycling guide, with lots of stories and practical advice to provide food for thought for enthusiastic amateurs, professionals or artists respectful of nature.
