Boxes,trays,vases and various containers made out of magazine pages!The pages seem to be tightly rolled,folded or coiled and glued together or onto a simple wooden container with some sort of clear superglue (like modge-podge,maybe?)
I was simply stunned at the amount of paper and work that it must have taken to make each of them....the ones with the coiled paper were by far my favourite.
Recycling in all its colourful glory,ladies and gentlemen:
There were only a couple of them in the store....but certainly a nice surprise.And quite cheap it seems (the tray in the fourth picture was 8 euros).Which makes me wonder...how much did the craftsmen get for making them?Surely not very much,given the final price....
But anyway.All this paper recycling galore reminded me of a similar paper box tutorial I found some time ago:

Now I think I might be off to find some old magazines.....:D
