Who we are!

RePlayGround is where discarded materials take on new life. We take scrap and make it new - and we help you ReMake It, too. We are eco-friendly lifestyle experts creating solutions for items usually considered scrap.

Be sure to check out our book, ReMake It, loaded with nearly 100 do-it-yourself recycling projects. Don't miss our ReMake It recycling kits - like the wine cork trivet and bottle lamp. They're both easy ways to get going with recycling. You can find us in magazines, on TV, and in your home!

RePlayGround grew from the imagination of Tiffany Threadgould. She went to grad school for design at the lovely Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York. That's where she wrote her thesis titled "Trash Nouveau - reincarnating garbage into usable products." And she's been a Design Junkie ever since.

Nonprofit support and other green stuff
We like to support organizations with similar beliefs to our company. We get 100% of our power from green solutions through ConEd (if you live in the NYC area, you can, too!). We try to travel as much by train as possible, but whenever we travel by airplane we offset every trip with carbon offsets through TerraPass . Plus, every year a portion of our profits go back to organizations dedicated to helping preserve our environment. Most recently we supported Green Map, Sustainable South Bronx, and Transportation Alternatives.

We also belong to 1% for the Planet,and our events also have qualified for a green listing with Greenopia.
