Sustainably Freshen Your Air with Sheep Poo
Sustainably Freshen Your Air with Sheep Poo
Yes, that is right, these Poo-Pouri air fresheners are made from sheep poop yet they will delight your nose with the scent of daffodils and fresh cut grass. No need to fret though, they thoroughly sterilize it by relentlessly washing and boiling it until on about 50% (the undigested cellulose) remains. Then through a labor of love they beat it to a pulp, paper making pulp that is. They then turn into paper using traditional paper making techniques which are then fragranced. The process of turning the sheep waste into wonderful does create some waste of its own, which the poop upcycling earth loving geniuses use as nutrient rich fertilizer.

Cord Control Solution
Cord Control Solution
The table allows for space to install the cables and cords out of sight, allowing the cable clutter to live there and leaving his workspace clear. It reminds of this pegboard hack, which could allow you to attach the wires without compromising the table itself. Although, we prefer the flexibility of blupic's version, he's even got a Mac Mini hiding up there under the table.
