Acrylic is perfect for desk supplies! It comes in a plethora of colours so you’ll always find the right colour for you or to match your desk. Acrylic is great for creating either clipboards or pencil pot. The plastic is super durable and easy to create with. An essential for any desk.
In the Garden
Plastic isn’t just for in your house, its so durable that you can use it in your garden. It can be used to replace your greenhouse glass or your shed window. This works better as glass can be heavy and easily broken whilst plastic has an impact resistance of around 10 times more than glass, Its also cheaper! The same plastic can also be used to replace the glass you have in picture frames.

Splashbacks are an essential for anyone’s bathroom or kitchen. They protect your walls from splashes when cooking or any bathroom mess. Similar to the desk supplies, they come in a huge variety of colours so they will fit in the room you put it in, no matter what theme you go for.
