sustainablog Approved: Way Basics’ Recycled Paper Furnishings
Looking for reasonably-priced shelving and storage for your home? If you make your way to the local big box store, you’re going to find a lot of items made from particle board. Yes, it’s cheap, and relatively durable, but it’s also health hazard: all those wood chips are held together withformaldehyde, a known carcinogen that will be off-gassing into your house for 5-10 years. Furthermore, once that pressboard item passes its useful life, there’s little you can do with it other than send it to the landfill.

Way Basics Recycled Paper Furniture
You don’t have to be knee deep in particle board, Allen wrenches and confusing instruction manuals to have furniture on the quick and cheap. Way Basics wants to give you back those weekends that would be spent looking for that one last, but vital part you need to finish building your new table. Put together shelves, benches and end tables made from recycled paper without any tools (other than your hands and some super strong tape). Despite how paper furniture sounds, Way Basic cubes are strong enough for a 200 lb guy to jump up and down on, which probably couldn’t be said about that stuff from a certain Swedish furniture store.

Cube with Shelf: Yes it’s a Cube, but it also has a shelf! This new design is perfect for organizing all the small things in life that seem to either make their way into the trash can, or lost in the cavernous depths of the junk drawer. It’s also great for some of those hard to store items like shoes. Just think, 6 of these Cubes could fit your shoe collection perfectly. Ok maybe 10 Cubes. You’ll find that the Cube with Shelf is as fun and easy to assemble as peel, stick, done! The Cube with Shelf is the perfect solution for anyone trying to make life just a little bit easier.

The Cozy Bench is a functional necessity for every home and is a great solution for your entryway, bedroom, living room, or kid’s room. Three storage compartments perfectly fit the Cozy Cube that will help organize and tame the madness! The world’s easiest assembly just got even easier! The Cozy Bench uses paper dowels to help you align the zBoards perfectly in place. We’ve also gone backing board free with the Cozy Bench! Check out the additional images to see some great ways to make the Cozy Bench your own!
