Buy Cool Stuff With A Conscience
Basura bags are bags made from juice containers.
These unique and interesting bags are made by a women's cooperative in the Phillipines. They are created by hand from discarded juice pouches from their local schools. They sew the interesting graphics of the juice pouches together to create an original look for you to enjoy. They are fashionable, durable and 100% recycled... Thats 100% post-consumer waste. Now you can be stylish while being earth-friendly as well as supporting self-sufficiency in their village.
