Must Have: Handmade French Lace Bag

by grechen on May 19, 2009 | SUBSCRIBE | TWITTER | FACEBOOK |

I know I’ve mentioned Cosa Verde before, but it’s worth talking about again…if you’re at all intimidated by Etsy, or at least find it exhausting to browse, Cosa Verde takes some of the work out for you. Cosa Verde connects independent designers with environmentally-conscious consumers (me & you) through a cute, easy-to-browse interface that ultimately links to the sellers Etsy store for buying.

I found this lovely bag through Cosa Verde from seller tortillagirl: French Lace Bag constructed in cotton canvas with floral hand-cut unbleached lace appliqué stitched (no glue, ever) onto front. Double interfaced. Unbleached cotton lining. Interior patch pocket with lace detail.

Cut Loose repurposes gently used tees and knit shirts into one-of-a-kind clothing, bags and other products. Cut Loose wholesales to eco-boutiques, and loves to do custom work for you. This is a way to give those tees that you have been saving (but not wearing) a second chance. We can give shape to that unused tee that you just can’t let go. We can make a bag you will be proud to use out of that shirt buried at the bottom of your closet. Your reuse is an earth-friendly move.

I love all of Christy Robinson’s recycled aluminum jewelry, but this one really seems to fit :)
