We’ve picked the lucky winner of our Solio Charger competition and we’re happy to announce that it’s Sherry Grunder. Although we received tons of great “eco tips”, we picked Sherry for one reason-her “eco tip” was: instead of rushing out to the craft store for her kids so they can make holiday gifts, they raid the recycling bin when they’re feeling creative.

Girly-Girl and Silly-Head

"Girly-Girl" and "Silly-Head"

We love that Sherry’s children, creatively known as “Girly-Girl” and “Silly-Head” made all their Christmas gifts this year out of TRASH! Pencil holders, jewelry cases and personalized snack containers were all ingeniously constructed from items found in the recycle bin.

The eco tips that we received all had some great ideas and we will happily share then with you at a later date, but what we felt was most important to the tip that Sherry sent in was the fact that, not only are her girls active in recycling, but they’re inspired by using waste to create something new. They are the future and we couldn’t be more excited to have them as our lucky winners! We look forward to “Girly-Girl” and “Silly-Head” creating recycled designs in all forms and we’ll gladly display their ideas for all to see.

Congrats!
