Sea Bags

I first reviewed the Sea Bags in October 2005, and they're worthy of a repeat. Their story was so intriguing that I simply had to share it with all of you. Started 6 years ago by Hannah Kubiak, Sea Bags is operated now by Beth and Hannah, who create handbags made out of old sails from retired sailboats. According to Beth and Hannah, these bags are "sailed around the world, and recycled in Maine." Prices for these remarkable bags range from $95 for the mini version to $185 for the large tote and orders can be customized (with certain colors, numbers or letters). Sea Bags totes come in small, medium and large and a variety of designs and colors made to carry here, there and anywhere you choose. I loved them then and I certainly love them now.
