Poo cards

....

Card maker Vijender Shekhawat is hoping his unique format of romantic missive will take the market by storm.

His company Haathi Chaap (Elephant Stamp) plans to process 30 tons of dung every month to make a special paper from the grass and leaf fibres that pass through the elephants' system without being digested.



The pulp produces a high quality, unique paper which can be used for any style of greeting card.

This is nothing new that his company is doing:

Elephant Art, Elephant Dung Paper, Saa Paper, hand-made, and special products from Thailand.​

​

​

Original Elephant Dung Paper (EDP), recycled by elephants at the Lampang Elephant Conservation Center, are one-of-a-kind, unique handmade paper products. They are turned into beautiful, safe creations by workers in a Fair Trade environment at Lampang, Thailand. These products are made at the Lampang Elephant Conservation Camp and can only be found in North America at this site. Our paper makes great gifts and is 100% bacteria free, 100% odor free, 100% recycled, & 100% handmade - with the exception of some help from the elephants. 100% Elephant Dung Paper. Don't settle for anything less than the straight poop.

Sounds like a reasonable way to get rid of excess dung...

Might not have the desired effect as a Valentine's Day card though.

I think the new factor is that he's making Valentines out of poop.

 

[Jazzy]

Valentines are poop to begin with.

I'd feel pretty shitty if I was given one of those.
