One is some fantastic green leather that I cut off a vintage chair that was on the sidewalk outside my house. It is the highlight of the series I'm making now that involves the guitar pick shape, pierced to reveal the fabulous green leather underneath.
The other, is recycled blue acupuncture tubes. Hundreds are disposed of per day, and this is a fun way to 'upcycle' a material so it doesn't have to make it's way to the dump - it can be made into jewellery or other forms of sculpture or art.
-Adios
