Thrifty With a Heart: Film Biz Recycling

 

Eva Radke worked as an art department coordinator in the film industry for many years.  While doing so, she grew very aware of all of the waste the field created.  Her solution:  Film Biz Recycling.  A store selling all sorts of props from the sets of wrapped movies, music videos, theater productions and tv shows.

 

The initiative is “green”, as it finds a home for many items that would otherwise end up in a landfill.  FBR also donates 60% of its items to charity.  But not to worry, there are still plenty of goodies left in the Gowanus, Brooklyn store for us all!

 

 

i fell hard for this wing chair (and there were two of them!)

 

this row of neatly organized bins contained all sorts of scenarios "in a box"

 

With the last beach home featured, I realized how expensive French inspired deck chairs can be.  At $10 a chair, these are a steal.  Just switch out fabric, and voilà!

and yes, you also have the option of renting out items
