Bags - Plastic tote, cherry
Taking zero waste to a new style with upcycled plastic!
I’m very excited about this new textile I created with familiar daily used plastics. This process has been a year in the making and I couldn’t be prouder of its composition! It’s very fun to create with…I’ve never used so much color.
I’m sure you will recognize some of the plastics, they’re from food packaging, household items, product supplies, packaging for shipping, shopping bags, restaurant carry-out bags, produce netting, garment bags & any type of plastic I could find. Thank you, family & friends, for saving me so many great plastics to create with.
I’ve fused the plastics together in layers with heat for a colorful & durable finish. I added my signature freestyle stitching, in black of course, to add texture & secure the layers.
This tote is super sturdy with both an interior & exterior pocket to help keep you organized. Two top handles in black nylon cording that have been reused from discarded items. The bag closes securely with a cherry red zipper.
