It’s been quite a week for eco product designer, Taryn Zychal, the 25 year old green queen behind Recycling Zychal, a company specializing in the rescue and repurpose of broken, discarded umbrellas.
After leaving her fulltime job at a marketing agency to tend to and further expand her rapidly growing company, Zychal received an email requesting two custom made dog coats to be given to Francesca and Sharky, Martha Stewart’s infamous French Bulldogs as gifts.
“It was my pleasure to make these coats for Martha’s dogs, she’s been an influence on me and my work for quite some time now, and to know that her dogs will be walking around in my hand crafted dog coats is just an absolute honor”, says Zychal, who joked that she was waiting for Ashton Kutcher to run out and tell her she had been Punk’d when she dropped them off at the Martha Stewart Studio this past Wednesday.
The coats she made for Martha’s dogs are the first two of a brand new line of Upcycled Umbrella Winter Dog Coats made from broken umbrella fabric, your choice of a vintage, handpicked, or eco-fi felt lining, which is made from 100% post consumer recycled plastic and insulated with batting that is also made from recycled plastic bottles. These coats will be officially available to purchase October 12th on the Recycling Zychal etsy store, but Zychal says she will fulfill orders requesting the eco-friendly batting prior to the launch date.
