Crafter and upcycling diva creating green products through reusing unwanted goods.
Mandy Renee Stos, crafter and upcycling diva behind www.iamthemandy.com is not only an artist and entrepreneur, but an inventive environmentalist as well. Combining craft with recycling, producing items that are unique, functional, and the ultimate in eco-chic. I believe that upcycling a single item, can help reduce waste and create a more environmentally friendly lifestyle. Upcycling is defined as: the process of converting unwanted materials or useless products into new materials or products of better quality or a higher environmental value. My product line is designed entirely of 85-90% reused or re-purposed materials. I strive to help promote and encourage other citizens to upcycle or simply donate any unwanted items to local organizations. Doing so keeps landfills down, promotes green efficiency and makes you feel all giddy inside.
I started iamthemandy while in college and didn't have much cash to buy amazing and expensive presents for friends and family. Having my BFA in graphic design, I put my talents to work and began making all my gifts. Each gift was unique and customized for my besties to enjoy. People starting loving my creations and the idea behind it. From there on, the rest is history.
