The Last Straw

Flow Jewellery Launches

Experiment: 1 giant margarita boat + 5 straws

Result: cringy moves on the dance floor, oversharing to anyone who will listen

Conclusion: energy cannot be created or destroyed, just transformed from one form to another

Yes, but what happened to the straws?

Designer Linda Schailon has a clever (if madcap) use for cast-off siphons: Flow, a collection of unique and quirky rings made from plastic drinking straws. She crafts them in a kaleidoscope of colours, and one size fits all (the straw’s elbow expands!). The kooky, ecologically virtuous trinkets will be a spark of conversation and brighten your outfit without darkening the planet.

Suck on that.
