Description

Why make new materials when there are interesting and perfectly usable fabrics that can be recycled or upcycled? “Waste not” is the mantra behind these awesome Mona B bags, totes and accessories. Her goal is to reduce and reuse some of the world’s waste – or what some people may consider waste because, as we all know, one person’s trash is another person’s treasure! Mona B’s collection is all about fashion that is Earth friendly – and let’s not forget how great they all look! The fabrics used in these bags include canvas from military tents, army trucks, delivery vehicle tarps and wool scraps. Mona B takes these fabrics and uses them to create unique, recycled treasures; added details like leather handles and printed graphics provide an edgy, one-of-a-kind style. Each of these bags is truly an original. The canvas used is 100% recycled from used tarps and tents. These tarps have literally travelled the world and carry the scars and bruises of use. Therefore each bag will sport its own unique marks of wear and tear. Expect to see possible variations including stitch marks and minor staining of the canvas. These are the hallmarks of an up-cycled item.  Houndstooth Chilli Pepper Scarf from Mona B
