My colleagues and Greenists released so many great gift ideas in recent weeks. Is 23. December a bit too late to share another? Perhaps. If you an early jump on NEXT year's holiday season, but want or if just the feeling that your busy posted December guarantees you a new year's gift for yourself, then I have another suggestion for you. How about a Bazura Bag?
These robust, colorful bags are made from the traditional not recyclable materials of a women cooperative in the Philippines, would otherwise litter the streets or crowd landfills. Children from local schools collect used beverage containers (so-called doy packs in this part of the world) and sell to the co-op, where women clean and sew into pockets of all sizes, as well as accessories such as belts, placemats and sandals.
"Bazura" means "Garbage", but the end result is anything else than. Their catalog contains all the way up to a huge laundry bag so many fun and useful designs of pencil bag and small handbags. I received one Bazura's 15?x12? market bags to the try, and it has become my favorite go to bag for any number of things back and forth toting fast. I love that it holds its shape and easily maintain almost like a box so that it's easy things inside all neat and tidy, but it super flat when not in use, to folding stacking. And I love the unique look of all "Sun GLO" and "Zest-o" panels in a row. I can use it to take a board game, a bottle of wine and a container of cookies to a party and never again one of these "Is this your bag or mine purple reusable 'Minnesota co op advantage'?" Discussions, if my friends and I collect to leave all our stuff.
I had my bag Bazura just a few weeks, but I'd be very surprised if it does not last for many years. I was skeptical about the shelf life of a punching bag made of beverage containers, but double seams that all look very solid and nylon belting, step up to the belt and edges seems so that the construction is quite safe. And it is easy to clean, to! Since the bag slick and plasticy/slide- as inside and outside, I wipes everything, what spilling or squash in it slightly right above.
You can review all categories of Bazura products in Bazura Shop. Apart from the market bags I cover also the woven like wallet, lunch bags and boxes and the Banner carrying bag and coin. However, you can have a different favorite and guess what? Sell profits!
The good folks at Bazura bags have offered a luck Greenists readers send a Bazura bag of their very own. Enter would just leave a comment on this post, let us know what Bazura bag that you like best, and we have our friend the random number generator choose a winner in a week.
