Erica LouEsty; handmade recycled fashion
May 13th 2010 08:13
A friend pointed me in the direction of a site called Esty. A company founded in 2005, offering a website showcasing artists all over the world selling hand made products.
http://www.etsy.com/ - Buy, Sell, and Live Handmade.
Hit the word ‘recycled’ into Esty's search engine and voila; artists around the world selling their handmade products from recycled materials. Here are a few artists with recycled fashion items for sale that I have selected:
Simply Renewed
Simplyrenewed
“All of our items are handmade with recycled or renewed materials. The burlap comes from actual coffee bean sacks from around the world. The lining is made from reused fabrics. Each one is unique”

“I am focused on designing high-quality unique children's fashion from babies to 10 years old. My customer's satisfaction is a top priority. I have been creating something all my life - and have been designing and sewing for kids and grown ups for almost 25 years. In the past two years I started rescuing textiles and giving the new life in a different form or shape. This is not only good for your heart and soul, good karma and sooo much fun! You never know what you will end up with!”

"Welcome to my shop! If you have unworn t-shirts that you'd like me to turn into dresses or tops I'd love to do that for you! There is discount applied to the original price since you would be supplying the materials. I also love to trade and do custom orders so don't be shy! Drop me a line”
