Shitty stationery

We usually call bad things shitty and want to stay as far away from them as possible. But do you know that a lot of people have willingly turned to products that are made using animal poop?  No they are not skunks; they are as clean as you and me! These products are 100 % eco friendly, which is why they are becoming increasingly popular these days.

 Living in an alarmingly polluted city of New Delhi, my guts and intestines have also started craving for eco friendly products! Fortunately there are people less lazy than me who actually chose to do something about it rather than sit back and crib! So there have been a couple of innovative organizations who are manufacturing paper in a completely organic manner. No cutting of trees, no ugly natural consequences.. Just simple ingenuity at work and beautiful paper as a consequence!

One such organization that makes products using elephant poo is called “ Haathi Chaap”. The process is fairly simple and the products funky! The products include bags, frames, photo albums, notebooks, stationery, cards and tags, knick knacks and other quirky stuff.

These stores are retailed at the following stores in Delhi.

Another interesting Indian brand working with rhino poo is “ Elrhino” , which makes exquisite hand crafted paper from rhino and elephant poo. Their products are retailed online at www.shopo.in . You can also “ like” their page on facebook to stay updated on their new collection. Their facebook link is https://www.facebook.com/Elrhinopaper?ref=ts

Once you see the products that these two companies retail, rest assured you will not call their collections “shitty”!!
