I highly recommend you check out Anna Garforth's work... I totally dig her Mossenger - 'moss graffiti', as well as her Head Gardner projects. Anna graduated from Central Saint Martins in 2007 with a BA in Graphic Design and has since worked on a variety of commissioned pieces for a diverse range of clients.
Her self-initiated Head Gardner project involves re-purposing plastic milk bottles into plant heads. From her description on her website: 'It takes on the guerilla gardening concept of beautifying neglected or unwelcoming public space through gardening and growing plants, making it a more inviting environment to be in, as well as attracting a healthier biodiversity.' Tres cool IMO.
Visit Anna's website to see additional pics, along with more cool stuff at http://www.crosshatchling.co.uk/ - enjoy! Thanks to my friend, and local Winnipeg designer Mark Simpson for sending me the link. Cheers!

Super Cool!
I'm making a pair of pants using similar techniques.
Hey! I totally blogged about the same thing! lol
I love her stuff! Very cool.
James - HAHA!
I hadn't thought about making pants though... very clever! lol
Yes, some very cool stuff indeed. Hmm... I'm not sure if I want to know about the pants, when you speak of similar techniques were you referring to the recycling of plastic milk jugs or the use of moss as a substrate? Hmm... ;P
