Inspired by open-source, sustainable practices, these recipes bring together both traditional and experimental methods that reduce reliance on plastics, expensive supplies, and disposable culture. We’ve gathered and adapted many of them from resources available across the internet to create one accessible catalog. Whether you're making for art, craft, home cleaning, or design, these recipes are approachable, affordable, and rooted in care for the planet. By learning to work with what’s around us—plants, food scraps, and fibers—this catalog invites you to see the natural world not just as inspiration, but as a creative partner in your daily life.
