Chic, unique and fashionable handbags created from recycled and eco-friendly materials.
Each minute, over one million plastic bags are consumed worldwide. No wonder, then, that the environmental damage associated with plastic shopping bags has become a burning issue in recent times.
Plastic shopping bags are no less than a plague in the world today. They flutter in the breeze over our cities; hang from branches in the parks; clog our sewers; and form massive “patches” in our oceans.
Individuals, communities and governments all over the world are today sitting up and taking notice of the menace to our environment from the plastic shopping bag.
A virtual cottage industry has developed in less privileged communities in many parts of Asia and Africa. People there have been harvesting and recycling discarded plastic shopping bags for quite some time to create aesthetically wonderful and useful household items – even shopping bags.
Supporting their effort can go a long way to protect the environment, at the same time helping these communities sustain themselves.
Some eminent designers have drawn inspiration from these eco-friendly alternatives and launched collections of their own.
When you buy them, you can have the satisfaction of doing your bit for a greener planet.

These little coin purses are soooo cute! The cat purse was actually a gift from my friend. I loved it so much that I asked her where she got it from. She told me about your website and that these bags are made by Indian artisans. I loved the owl design too and immediately bought it. Now, my question is, are there any more designs available? Do they make handbags in these styles? I am just dying to get hold of another one!
I have been looking for a nice cotton Beach bag for quite some time, but all I kept finding was large bags made of jute. Now, though jute is also a natural fibre, I do not like it so much because it is too rough in texture. While browsing your site this bag caught my fancy and I went for it. I am happy to say that this bag has met all my requirements very efficiently. It is quite large, fits in all I need at the beach, is very sturdy and Sarah’s flower design fits perfectly with the happy vibe at the seaside!
