William Wilson creates these ‘vintage characters‘ out of discarded soft toys. “childrens’ former companions, thrown away after years of most intimate relations. The pluche animals I collect are turned INSIDE OUT by me. Nothing more. Nothing less.”

William received a special mention at the 2005 ‘re-think and re-cycle‘ design awards, held at designboom. Some of my other favourites included bowls, baskets and hats made out of plastic bags. Then there is a wonderful organic plant pot made out of mud and stick and leaves, I also enjoyed the jeans chair and the chair legs chair.

I think you mean “character” not “charactor”….it’s hard to see these things when you’re typing fast!
