Well, apparently Roseana Rocha knew and she is not alone where recycling of paper has created a new wave of designers. From specialty cards, and cards that grow bouquets to loveseats; yes furniture (Okay, some wood was used with recycled paper, but the video demonstration of how the furniture works is pretty amazing). 
You name it and recycling can make it happen. How about a PopVase?While paper has been given a “new life,” in some forms and in another, we see the slow demise in print as the newspaper, once a widely used resource, lose its market as people opt to receive their local and global news online. Whether it is the desire to be more green or just due to convenience, there may soon be a generation who will only “read” stories, on the Internet of course, about the print newspaper. Books are also becoming more available online.
Community Seeds E-magazine, which is a family business based in Chico, saw the need for a magazine that would promote local businesses and activities while also connecting people from the surrounding communities. As a family working on various environmental projects, it only made sense for Community Seeds to be an online resource “right at your fingertips whenever you want to read it!”
Finding everyday household consumable items made from recycled paper like paper towels, toilet paper, etc. has been easier as more major discount and bulk retailers begin stocking them on their shelves. Many office supply stores have also begun manufacturing their own line of eco-friendly paper, providing their customers with more alternatives.
