In these extraordinary circumstances when a majority of the world is facing contemplative time, we hope people start to see the significance of our consuming habits. We hope there are trends towards greener pastures in the future. We will always be here consuming less and trying to use up the waste. Be Green Not Mean.
Dear Followers, in these tough times we urge all to stay safe and stay home.

Our latest creation ,keeping in mind the line of festivities coming up & Dipawali happens to be one of the most celebrated festivals in India .
It is truely the festival of lights and joy ,celebrating good over evil and thus decorating up our houses and each and every corner with beautiful lights ,flowers ,diwali decors,family presents and lot more .
This year we came up with something similar but with a touch of our own imagination and we have created what is called
UPCYCLED TEALITES (Dipawali Edition )
An insight into our creative processes ,these tealite holders are made up using waste glass materials, which have been processed in the furnace using moulds at a certain heating temperature .
These glass particles are extremely fragile and have to be dealt with very delicately ,especially in terms of applying heat .
There have been times when some of them come out as broken or cracked . Hence its very important to make sure about the correct heating temperature .
We have our artists who are trained professionals into glass art .

It was 2015 and we realised that we can use scrap for construction, architecture and interior design. A very leaky roof that needed replacing finally pushed us to doing something we were only dreaming off.
We got a truck full of scrap heavy-duty metal racks and old doors and windows, dismantled the old roof and #upcycled the entire first floor of The Wonky Studio. Apart from the new roof and the electricals, the entire floor, the walls and staircases are made from junk.
Now in 2019 we can definitely say that it’s been an inspiration unlike any other to work in this #awesomelyupcycled space day in and day out. The Wonky Studio continues to evolve and grow and never ceases to inspire and amuse us.

On International Women’s Day, it’s great to reflect on our basic principle. Compassion for all Women, All People, The Earth and all Living Beings. At WonkyWorks we strive to create a safe and uplifting environment for all our awesome females. From providing flexible hours to providing healthcare benefits and 2 Saturdays off (we don’t want more!)
We hope to continue our service to Women and the Environment for the future and hope to be inclusive of more waste materials other than glass in the coming year. Stay tuned to see some awesome up-cycled plastic products coming to you soon.
These cute lil knobs are great for drawers, windows and small cuppboards. Move over brass, we have something way greener. The Mini Bottle Knob is kiln-formed in a furnace at 700°Celsius, is fade-proof and washable and ready to use. Go green now and flaunt your lack of carbon footprint!
Up for grabs in Amber and Frosted. And very soon in a whole range of.colours…

PS: All WonkyWorks upcycled products are made from actual waste glass bottles. Each piece is slightly different depending on the waste material available. Support us by buying an environmental-conscience product :) and remember to REDUCE, REUSE and RECYCLE
