Fallen leaves + water = your new favorite plate.
If a tree falls in the forest, it may not make a sound—but it does make a plate. Or a bowl, or a serving dish. This minimalist disposable dinnerware is fashioned from fallen palm leaves, in sizes and shapes aplenty for any kind of spread. They’ll hop into the compost bin once the festivities are over, or break down on their own in about two months’ time if they find their way into the rubbish bin. (Yeah...they’re a no-brainer for your next big party.)
