Oooooh lookie, candy-colored bags made from candy wrappers!
Ecoist is a sustainable company that recycles food packages, billboards and other materials and turns ‘em into accessories. And they’re cute accessories, not crocheted beer can hats.
The gold and silver collections are perfect for special-occasion or holiday dress-up. I’m a color girl and I love the bright tote pictured above — a perfect addition to any holiday resort wardrobe. And they have an entire line made of Luna bar wrappers for you sporty types.
A word on their website: I love being able to shop by color. It’s one of the things that makes San Francisco thrift favorite Crossroads a great place. More organization by color!
