This Goa-Based Store Reduces Waste By Upcycling Bottles Into Quirky Home Decor Items

All of us love doing up for homes and creating a space where we truly feel comfortable. However, we don’t realise that industries like furnishings and home decor also contribute to the waste and have adverse impact on the environment.

If you want to focus on more conscious living and adapt to an eco-friendly lifestyle, then check out products by Goa-based IWas. The non-profit is an upcycling platform which believes in empowering communities and trying to cut down on the problem of trash plaguing the environment. All their products are handmade and sustainable. 


They tie up with various upcycling platforms like MESO Design, Sapu Upcycle and XS Project to create economic incentives for communities and also promote sustainability. So each product that you shop from here actually has an important impact. 


If the nobility of their cause doesn’t catch your attention, then their lovely products sure will. They have a range of glassware and tableware which will blow you away. There’s a gorgeous metallic green vase which has been cut out of a champagne bottle which will light up any corner of your room. The party glasses are embossed with the letters  P-A-R-T-Y-! And D-R-I-N-K-S and are perfect for a housewarming. These are handcrafted from single-use beer bottles.


They also have a lovely range of glass bottles which can be used to store water or any other beverage and makes for a lovely gift too. All their products are stylish and will certainly add some charm to your space. You can check them out here to place an order.
