A twice-weekly sharing of eco-shwag.
Today’s freebie is a cute silver Rebagz mini bag you can proudly carry to the next eco event! Upcycled from otherwise landfill-bound juice packs, this mini bag’s just 8″x6″X1.5″ — the perfect size to use as a shiny, eye-catching wristlet clutch or cosmetics bag.
Rebagz bags are made in the Philippines under fair labor conditions — a practice that has earned Rebagz Green America’s Seal of Approval. Plus, according to Rebagz creator and L.A.-area resident Marty Stevens-Heebner, “One dollar from each order goes to Global Exchange, an organization I did humanitarian work with in Chiapas, Mexico.”
The Rebagz mini bags costs $24 each; other sizes, designs, and colors are also available. But to win this free one, comment by Tuesday to get into the drawing, which’ll happen Wednesday (more info on freebies here). US addresses only.
So cute. Telling people to enter! :)

Aw, I am commenting too late it appears, but I must say, that bag is absolutely adorable. And I’m not a big ‘mini-bag’ person usually, but wow.

Have always loved the multi-colored ones, but love the update to make this “going out” friendly as well. Super cute silver clutch that would look great with a little black dress!

They sold these bags at Regeneration in Eagle Rock before they closed. I miss them (the bags & the store)!
