Emily Kircher is a Recycling Artist. Hence the name EKRA. She breathes new life into found and reclaimed materials by turning them into quirky housewares and accessories. Salvaged fabrics from clothes, linens, and remnants are crocheted into rugs and bags and photo frames are ‘mosaiced’ using pottery shards from vintage teacups.

My personal favourites are the fridge magnets. Old bottle caps are decorated with illustrations from thrift store books and topped with clear resin. Very nifty.

Emily has two websites - www.etchouse.com/ekra and www.ekra.etsy.com.
