**********LUNCH SACKS WITH A STORY TO TELL***********
I love taking vintage textiles and organic textiles and turning them into something fun and useful. They are ECO Friendly and the textiles are strong and beautiful.
*****A WORD ABOUT MY TEXTILES****
All of the textiles I work with are organic. I choose them very carefully so they are safe for your family and mine. My shop offers not only a Great way to BE GREEN but a unique way to introduce a little bit of history into your everyday life.
It has worked with my family. My kids just love learning about all the different textile histories. Teaching them to reuse,up cycle, and renew just makes good Earth sense.
I offer both unlined (breathable) and lined bags and sacks. The linings are
1.A food safe water proof nylon which means no PVC, no phthalates, no BPA,and no lead.........I have not sealed the seams to make them water-proof.
2.An Organic Cotton. Anywhere you see a lined bag and you want Organic cotton lining instead, just put a note to the seller upon purchase and I will substitute it for you.
3.An Organic Linen Lining works great for home bread storage.
I also have an assortment of bags and sacks, coasters, napkins and cozy bowls.
These are easy care, made to last designs. Unlined items are finished with "french" seams which adds to the strength and beauty.
I package all of my items in recycled paper.
