Green Fusion

The "Green Fusion" vignette inspired by the
global movement toward saving the planet.

Apples recycled after an event are donated to local farms for feeding.

Succulents reused and replanted.

This vignette of designs is called The Green Fusion. It was inspired by the global movement toward saving the planet. It displays different ways to use materials that are in harmony with the environment. It is our social responsibility to be involved and achieve tangible results. Just talking about doing something is not acceptable anymore. The key words are reduce, recycle, reuse, and repurpose. There are many sources and options in our industry. The rental of props, containers and linens is at our fingertips. Our industry offers these items in recycled and eco-friendly materials. Branches and vines are fantastic organic mechanics. There are many different styles of mosses that can be reused. Fruits like apples can be used in designs and then given to local farms for the animals to eat. Succulents are great materials that can be reused and replanted.

EDUCATIONAL TIP: Use the sources that are at your fingertips and give them a purpose. Giving back to the environment and to your community is very important. Promote locally grown flowers and LED (Light Emitting Diodes) lighting that consumes less power, lasts longer and contains no toxins.
