If you are distressed by the reports of vast amounts of plastic entering our oceans and littering our landscape and feel motivated to combat this growing, global crisis I am sure you are considering all alternatives to single use plastic bags.

This produce bag is not only an alternative to plastic but has been created by up-cycling used curtain panels, thus keeping them out of our landfills as well. Instead of using the plastic bags supplied by the grocery store take one or more of these with you to bring fresh produce home. They are easy to tuck into a purse or market bag and can be used over and over again to help you achieve an eco-friendly and zero waste lifestyle.

The bag measures approximately 13 to 14" tall and is approximately 11 1/2" to 12" wide. The side and bottom seams have been double stitched to ensure durability and long life. The top has a casing through which a cord has been threaded to allow for quick and easy closing. They are washable and quick drying. In fact you can leave your produce in the bag to wash before using or storing in the fridge.

The material used in your bag will vary from those shown here but will be similar and will always be from an up-cycled lace curtain panel in either white or ivory/beige.

These would make a lovely eco-friendly gift for someone who is promoting an organic and waste free lifestyle and a thoughtful and appreciated hostess gift.

Note that this listing is for a single bag but others are available and will be mailed together to minimize shipping costs. If you would like to purchase more than 6 bags please contact me to determine the additional cost of shipping, especially if you live in Canada. Rates increase considerably if the package exceeds the size for lettermail.
