Trash to Trashbaggs

What was a high school class project, has turned into a thriving little green business.
We take candy and snack wrappers, as well as old books and comics and turn them into bags and accessories.
We, Jayme (daughter) and Lynn (mom) create everything in our home studio in Vancouver.
Jayme is generally the creative genius, ideas for what and how to design,
Lynn helps in the day to day running of the business as Jayme continues her studies as a Masters student in Graphic Design.
-so you're not only supporting an environmentally thoughtful company, you're helping me get my college education!

Thank you for your great love and support of Trashbaggs!!

Owner, Creator

As a high school class idea, I wanted to find a way to turn candy wrappers -headed for the landfill into something, fun and usable. With my ideas, and my moms help, Trashbaggs were born! People love them, they are unique, definitely one of a kind!
