SewnAgain Sustainable Etsy Find

We would like to share a fresh sustainable Etsy find: Soap Totes by SewnAgain!
No more soggy soap with these soap travel handbags. Inner fold-out mesh pocket allows soap to dry completely before zipping it up for travel. Loop allows hooking onto a faucet, hook in the shower stall, or near by branch, creating a portable soap dish.

Crafted out of upcycled billboard vinyl and laundry mesh bag material. SewnAgain has really applied her creativity to designing a stylish, functional and sustainable bag!
SewnAgain likes "to create something new out of our culture's discard pile." We Love her for it!

:::rikrak::: Sustainable Etsy Find

::: rikrak is the home of handmade one-of-a-kind and limited edition
upcycled vintage fabric creations, & fabulous new felt goodies! :::We would like to share one of our favorite sustainable finds: :::rikrak:::
Kristal of http://rikrak.etsy.com makes a wide selection of eco-forward goodies!
The item I use the most is a wee sustainable card cozy. It’s just the right size for my necessary cards and fits keenly into my inside coat pocket, when I’m not in need of my thick ‘ol wallet. It would also make perfect reusable wrapping for a gift card!

Tigerlily is quite enamored with her iron on patches. She has a wide selection of vintage fabric patches to customize anything! We love her birds and bats. Tigerlily is eyeing the hearts for Valentines Day (which she has proclaimed her new favorite holiday).

Kristal herself is a delight. She approaches the world with joy. Kristal has exceptional communication skills. She is an awesome seller to work with. The pleasantly professional way she approaches her business shop is a breath of fresh air. The :::rikrak::: shop policies are complete and easy to navigate. The shipping is quick, and the packaging eco-friendly.

Here's what she has to say about sustainable design "I'm a great fan of sustainable living and sustainable creating. Using beautiful vintage textiles in my work is one of the many ways I try to incorporate ecoforward thinking in my little business. When using vintage fabrics, I only choose textiles in excellent condition. Each piece is fresh and bright and clean."

Tigerlily and I think the world is brighter because Kristal is making eco-forward designs and selling sustainable goodies on Etsy!
