Why It's Good:

Set out with this fabulously original bag woven from old metric measuring tapes and you'll be stopped by strangers on the street—oh, and brace yourself for the sewers and crafters! So cute, we want one right now.

Why It's Green:

Momaboma crafts all their handbags and accessories from old materials like Italian mailbags, military garb, vintage magazines, and student school papers. (You can view their step-by-step process on their site, under "materiali". Note: the entire site is in Italian!) Repurposing an item is one of the greenest things you can do—it cuts down on the creation of new materials, and saves old ones from ending up in the landfill. Bravo!
