OK, sorry, this might just be the crappiest image I’ve ever uploaded to Green as a Thistle, but I couldn’t find this product anywhere online and my camera battery died so I couldn’t take my own picture. Just wanted to get that apology out right off the bat because I like me some good aesthetics.
So here’s the deal — some of you readers with an elephant’s memory might look at this post and say, “WTF?! A soap dish? Didn’t that cheating wannabe environmentalist already write about a soap dish?” Well, actually, it was more like a soap holder, if you must know. That was when I was travelling a lot and had to get something to hold my bar of soap, so I bought a Radius recycled plastic carrying case.
However, two things have happened since then: 1) I lost it (sorry); and 2) I still need something to put my soap in for the bathroom, and would rather not have a container that needs opening and closing each time. So instead, I’ve got myself this cute little soap dish — not holder — that’s made from reclaimed chopsticks (actually, I got two, and gave one to my friend Jacob, who is very good about washing his hands before meals).
The coolest thing is, it’s collapsible, so if you want to take it with you on vacation, it folds up nice and neat in a snap. In fact, it could even be used as a makeshift comb, or an emergency falafel holder. Endless possibilities!
