A War On Plastic product. Plastic-free homeware for sustainable living.
Kitten (level: easy)
Making the kitten is easiest if you start from the tail.
Just count seven wedges from one end and put in a twist. Then the legs and body are all just two wedges long.
To make the head you just make a tight S with the rest of the Twisty Shape, and you are done!
You can set the head straight like in the picture, or cock it to one side in a cute pose. Give it a half twist for that effect.
Dog (level: easy)
The dog is probably the first shape to make for beginners.
Just count five wedges from one end of Twisty Shape and make a twist there. The tail is done!
The legs are two wedges from there, and the body is three.
The head is pretty easy after some trial and error. Check against the image till it's right!
Frog (level: medium)
The frog is medium-level difficulty. It is not easy because there are no straight lines.
But as it is symmetrical, after you've done one half right from the picture, you already know how to do the rest.
Each Twisty Shape comes with a leaflet showing easy, medium and hard shapes you can make!
About War On Plastic
The
War On Plastic
began life in our household as
a rule when dealing with toys for the kids
, or choosing stuff for the kitchen.
We were not environmentalists, but
we had an electric car, we composted, we recycled
. We still thought we could do more to reduce our plastic waste.
As a business, it began with Twisty Shape. But in the future we will add ever
more non-plastic solutions
for the home.
Reducing our plastic consumption, one product at a time!
About Twisty Shape
The first product behind War On Plastic
Twisty Shape
used to be a plastic toy back in the 1980s, rumored to be
an invention of the great Rubik
(of Rubik's Cube fame). It did not need to be plastic,
so we sourced a wood version.
War On Plastic products are designed and scrupulously road-tested in Portugal, Europe, where our business is based
Our products are assembled in our factories in third countries, in order to bring you, the buyers, the best economies and best prices in the market
Surpassing your expectations is an obsession for us. That's why we make sure that each product we list is 100% plastic-free, sourced responsibly
