Re-Geared: Cool Stuff Made From Recycled Bike Parts
I spent some time at the Dallas Etsy, Handmade Bash today and discovered a really cool company called Re-Geared. They take old bike parts and turn them into cool art, gifts and clocks. I’ve seen this type of bike part recycling before, but not to this level of quality and creativity. Artist/Co-Owner Rachel Spire was there, proudly displaying a wide variety of recycled objects, ranging from magnets, keychains and jewelry, to a fantastic american flag – created from bike chains. The various aged chains were cleverly worked to show the different tones in the flag.
You can find some of their stuff on etsy, or in Dallas at INDIGENIOUS.
