That sounds like a perfect adventure for a little project! First, think about turning everyday trash—like used paper grocery bags or recycled cardboard boxes—into sturdy, fold‑away packaging. You can line the inside with a beeswax‑sealed paper to keep it waterproof and give it that natural feel. For the outside, a simple printed sticker made from soy‑based ink gives a pop of color without any plastic. You could even design a small “DIY refill” kit that customers can send back and send fresh items, keeping the cycle closed. Brand it as “Zero‑Waste Chic” and tell the story of how each package is made from something that would have ended up in a landfill. The key is keeping the design minimal and the materials super accessible so you can scale without breaking the bank. If you need a prototype, let’s grab some old cereal boxes and start cutting!

Sounds like a plan! Grab the boxes, cut them into those fold‑away shapes, and we’ll paint a quick mock‑up with the brand logo on the front. I’ll draft a story that shows how each piece saves a trash truck’s worth of waste. Then we can do a quick social media test—post a before‑and‑after and ask friends to vote on the look. If the buzz is good, we’ll tweak the refill design and start the loop. Let’s turn that landfill laugh into a headline!

That’s the spirit! I’ll grab a pile of boxes now, start cutting and folding, and we’ll have a rough prototype in an hour. I’ll pencil in a design for the refill pouch, too—just a small zip‑lock bag that fits inside the box so customers can keep reusing it. Once we have the mock‑up, we can shoot a quick video, post the before‑and‑after, and watch the likes roll in. Keep that pitch tight, highlight the tons of waste we’re saving, and let’s make this a buzz‑worthy green brand. Ready, set, recycle!
