Feature Me Friday: Metamorphosi
This shop supports completely the Organization Progetto
Metamorphosi which promotes the use of recycled material
to create art and design and opportunities of work.
"Beside our studio in Calcata, we started in 1997 an organization
to promote the work of artist and artisans using recycled material."
Run by Ilaria Sadun, Metamorphosi sells unique creations made
with recycled material.
"We do projects with schools and events with public or private
organization. We have an ongoing project in Valença, Bahia, Brazil,
to support a group of talented women who are otherwise unemployed.
We initiated it in the year 2007 with the ONG Banca Comunitaria
Mais Vida, a project for street kids and poor family kids. 70% of
the sales of their creations go back to them."

Trash Talk Thursdays: Where are our frogs?
Where are our frogs?
Not so many frogs left around.
Pollution or evolution of species
the matter is "where are our frogs?".
Forget the golden toad of Costa Rica,
we should be aware that even the simple
green Hyla arborea is hard to find.
You don't care? Too bad. I do.
And I do for many other things.
Put a frog in front of fresh water and it will jump in,
in front of boiling water and it will go opposite direction,
leave it swimming in fresh water and make the water warmer and warmer...
she will die in it without being aware.
That's happening to us.
Frogs are fading away like our words.
Like human rights.
Like trees.
Like true happiness.
Frogs were powerful "tools"
to get closer to nature and gods.
They are leaving. Like so many other things.
Wake up.
It's not too late.
