Sustainability:
Using up old wood shavings from projects is a good way to recycle and decorate with a decently sustainable material.
Potential Chemical Exposure:
Using wood scraps that aren't from chemically treated or varnished wood is best to avoid synthetic chemical exposure.
Safe Handling Recommendations:
Be careful not to breathe in wood scraps and handle them with gloves to avoid splinters if really small.
Eco-Friendly Alternatives:
Sources - DIY or Retail:
