Mayari’s Blog

…thanks to inhabitat.com and a blogpost about my Recycled Magic Wallet.

As you can see the USA seems to be most powerful/cutting edge in terms of spreading the word through blogs. (Before inhabitat’s post most visitors came from Switzerland and the UK.) I wonder how the graph would change if other blogs would write about my progressive design product. I’m dreaming of posts on my other favourite blogs like swissmiss, treehugger, designboom, core77 etc. or even traditional media! To be continued… and if you can help me with being bloged/written about in any ways, please contact me!

I read a lot of online articles. For instance, it is widely said that nowadays it’s much more possible to make a business out of your passion (Seth Godin, New York Times etc.) The internet gives us new possibilities that previous generation didn’t have: to share and connect. To reach like-minded people all over the world. I truely hope this is true. Not only for tech savvy people where this practice seems to be normal already. I hope it’s also true for people passionate about sustainable (better) design and authentic artists creating it. Discover and explore the world wide web. Let’s find us and ourselves! Because it helps us.

I know from my own experience that times are tough. Noone wants to spend money nowadays and I’m not different. Just starting off my career I don’t have a lot of it anyway. But… ironically… I make wallets.

Wallets stand for spending money. Do they? Aren’t wallets there to keep money in the first place? Why not looking at it in that way? Give wallets to people so that they can fill them! It’s easy with Recycled Magic Wallets: the money easily gets in and stays there.

Wouldn’t that be great? How about a competition: Whose Recycled Magic Wallet is the fattest - filled with bills. I can see a photo competition taking place…

Finally, I managed to finish the website for my latest product. The Recycled Magic Wallets. A clever wallet that values waste and promises better design.

The site still needs some changes (like embedded comments, correcting copy), but it has all it needs to give you a better picture about the product and the design and how you could get one yourself.

Please check out the sites here and I’ll be happy to get any kind of feedback. Thanks so much.
