Scratch your OCD itch whilst saving a turtle at the same time!
* Please note, whilst sharp scissors will cut through most of the thin sections, something like a pair of flush cutters or snips, may be useful if you need to cut through a thicker section *
The multicolour 3D printing process produces an enormous amount of waste (playfully called ‘poops’), these little poops essentially end up in a landfill, and I hate to waste things, so I decided to make them into trees. Then, whilst trimming one of the trees, I realised how oddly therapeutic shaping an upcycled plastic tree was! So I’m here to pass on the joy to you with my ‘Prune Your Own 3D Poop Upcycled Eco-friendly Tree’ kit - rolls right off the tongue.
Despite its rugged appearance, each tree is meticulously made with care and attention. I spend over 3 hours assembling each one, from gluing the colourful filament scraps into a sturdy and vibrant foundation for you to trim, to 3D printing the tree trunk and base for a professional finish.
So what do you get?
- ONE ‘Prune Your Own Tree' featuring a colourful messy filament ball and a 3D-printed base and trunk.
- An extra bag of colourful poops for if you need to fill any gaps or would like to expand your tree (you can push them into gaps but a glue gun or superglue is advised)
- Instructions to guide you through the pruning process and inspire your creativity.
- The joy of knowing there’s less plastic in the sea to potentially end up in a turtle’s nose or something.
Why You’ll Love It:
• Therapeutic Pruning Experience: Trimming and shaping the tree is a calming and satisfying process, similar to bonsai tree care. It’s perfect for mindfulness, relaxation, and even as a form of stress relief.
• Eco-Friendly and Sustainable: By purchasing this tree, you’re helping to reduce plastic waste and supporting upcycled art.
• Unique Desk or Shelf Decor: Once you’ve pruned your tree to perfection, it makes a colourful and eye-catching addition to any space—perfect for your desk, office, or home.
• Mindfulness and Sensory Engagement: The act of pruning and the tactile nature of the filament materials make this a great option for anyone interested in sensory therapy, mindfulness exercises, or simply fidget-friendly decor.
• Perfect Gift Idea: Looking for something unique? This makes a fantastic gift for eco-conscious friends, crafters, or anyone who appreciates handmade, one-of-a-kind art.
Finished tree is around 20cm tall.
Oh, I also sell poop emoji prints, made out of poops, go check them out if you’re into saving the world like a good human.
