TAWASHI evening

"On the road to a green Province"

 

 

At the end of the boot community days, the community of Kremlin-Bicêtre had a Tawashi evening.

 

A Tawashi sponge is homemade, most often from old clothes.

 

It is a way to participate in recycling and limit polluting waste in a world where the consumption of synthetic sponges is very high.

 

 

 

                                                             Realization of 2 sponges on wooden loom and nails
