This EcoEtsy thing could become a serious habit. This week, artisans’ innovative use of oriented strand board, concrete and recycled laminate wood caught my attention. I may not be a wine connoisseur, but I know how to keep my vino safe. While corks do the job just fine, I prefer something a little more ornamental, like the OSB wine bottle stopper. Handmade from compressed strands of sustainable wood, this chic piece is a fabulous eco-friendly find.
I never knew that concrete could be so chic. From the inventive minds of YorkPatty artisans, the Custom Handcrafted coffee table changed my perspective on this green material. Rich repurposed timbers create a bold contrast against the concrete’s earthy moss hue for a sleek, sharp appeal.

I give A Stroke of Genius artisans extra points for their unique vision, but I’m on the fence about their Modern clocks.

Do you think this original piece is a stylish gem or an artistic blunder?
