The funky rhino is made of flip-flops
Smarten up your summer decor with a trip to HomeSense. Spark a conversation with a colourful recycled flip-flop rhino (pictured), made entirely from sandals washed up on the Kenyan shoreline. Each one of these bright animals is carved by hand and created to promote environmental awareness. Each sale helps to provide sustainable livelihoods for artisans.—Jennifer Patterson
