It’s a trashy life… But “the goddess of garbage” loves it.
Carol Tanzi’s recycle and reuse ideas are eco-chic and almost free.
Carol Tanzi, ASID, a.k.a. The Goddess of Garbage, is an award-winning interior designer in the San Francisco Bay Area obsessed with recycling and designing with trash. She has been at the forefront of the recycling movement for more than two decades. And, in this economy, when people can’t afford to buy new home furnishings and nice gifts, her message is coming through loud and clear, making The Goddess of Garbage the go-to expert.
She has received national recognition for using recycled materials and re-use items to create attractive and appealing home and office décor, furniture and accessories and for her dedication to teaching people, including children, how easy it is to recycle and re-use almost anything.
Carol Tanzi’s Crafty Projects Have Green Style
With consumerism on the wane, and environmental consciousness on the rise, Carol’s eco-friendly and thrifty ideas perfectly match the green shift in our culture. Her do-it-yourself projects are attractive and useful, while encouraging scaling back and returning to a more sensible waste not, want not outlook on life.

Dumpster Diving, Yard Sales, and a Space Only a Hoarder Could Love
Carol is energetic and enthusiastic, and a dumpster-diver who can’t resist a yard sale, thrift shop or pile of curbside trash. Her storage space and office, crammed with finds for projects, would scare a neatnick, but The Goddess of Garbage is on a mission. Her goal is to educate, inform and show the world a new way to recycle and reuse. She wants to change the way people think about trash, one dumpster at a time.
“I don’t create anything I wouldn’t want to have in my own office or home. I get huge satisfaction from rescuing castoffs that would otherwise end up in a landfill,” Carol says.
Carol is dedicated to teaching children about recycling. Her dream is that the younger generation will make green living a way of life.
The Goddess of Garbage is a bundle of energy with a quick wit and infectious zeal for her work. A great interview for Earth Day, Earth Month or any day.
