Can we just say that we love love love stuff that is made from stuff that would otherwise be discarded? Especially when it's made into something that bears little resemblance to its former incarnation. Take this lamp by Scott Jarvie. Look closely. Can see what it's made of?

If you guessed drinking straws, you are right. Yup the very same ones that fill your desk drawers. Perhaps, instead of tossing them you might want to use this as inspiration to shape a lamp of your very own. Jarvie's also shaped them into a chair. For more information, click here.
