Become a walking billboard with the Doctor's Tote by Seen. How is that possible you might ask? Well, the Doctor's Tote is a handbag made from recycled vinyl billboards. Genius, right? That is what I thought when I laid my eyes upon all of the products made by Seen!Seen saves old billboards from going to the landfill, and turns them into eco-friendly products with a modern twist. I absolutely love these handbags because they are super spacious as well as very sturdy.Since the Doctor's Tote is made from vinyl, it is waterproof. What a lovely aspect! We all know that children seem to want to play with things that do not belong to them; therefore, if grubby hands leave grim behind, have no fear. Simply wipe away with water and viola - squeaky clean again!Another great point about the Seen Doctor's Tote is that they are very bright and colorful; therefore, they can be worn with anything. Purses that can be worn with any outfit definitely win over my heart! $30 is an outstanding price for such an amazing product that is going to last a lifetime.

I am always trying to find THE perfect bag! Being a mother of two children, I need lots and lots of room in my purse for my kids things as well as my things. Ecoist has THE perfect bag!
The Daily Newspaper bag from Ecoist is a must have bag, esp. for moms. This bag is large, yet lightweight. Since it is made from recycled newspaper, you can basically wear this purse with any outfit because of all the different colors in it. I love that it is very strong and durable; therefore, you are definitely getting your monies worth because it will practically last forever!
A major plus to this bag is that it can easily be wiped down. That is so perfect for when little grungy hands decide to touch it!
Everywhere I go, I get compliments left and right. "Wow, did you make that?" or "That is a very cool bag!" It makes me feel good that I am carrying around a purse that is very eco-friendly as well as very chic.Ecoist has all kinds of handbags and purses.

I am really fond of the saying, "one man's junk is another one's treasure". This saying holds true to the Keen Harvest Collection Bags. Rice paper turned into beautiful and colorful bags. Now that is some fabulous creativity! Who would have thought that rice paper could be made into a new and useful product.
My favorite is the Irving Bag. It is made from reclaimed rice paper that is woven to create a gorgeous bag. I love that every bag is completely different from one another. That is what makes the world go round - uniqueness!
Keen's Irving Bag is very spacious with lots of pockets. Plus the handles are very comfortable on your shoulder. Having multiple children, this bag is every mother's dream as a diaper bag! This bag is very well put together. As you can see below in the picture, I was able to put a lot of items in the bag (very sturdy!). Another great aspect of the bag is once my kids out grow the diaper bag phase, I can use this bag as a gym bag or an everyday bag.
Not only does Keen carry amazing eco-friendly bags, but they also have really neat shoes for everyone. Be sure to check them out at www.keenfootwear.com.
I love it when people get creative and take something that is used daily to turn it into to something else. For instance, you know the juice packs that kids drink? Well, what about taking the empty juice packs, and turning them into bags! If you ask me, that is very creative!
Rebagz Handbags carries just that. Half The Sky Designs takes empty juice packs, and weaves them together to form these beautiful Rebagz. They make so many different styles that fit anyone's lifestyle like the All-In-One Wallets, Pop Top Bags, Wrap Around Bags, or my personal favorite On The Go / Bringing Up Baby Bag.
The On The Go / Bringing Up Baby Bag is very spacious. Perfect for carrying around baby items as well as mommy items. I was able to pack in one outfit for my newborn son, one outfit for my 15 month daughter, a can of formula, a blanket, multiple toys, diapers for both babies, wipes, diaper cream, a sippy cup of juice, and a bottle. If you think that is a lot for one bag, think again! Even with all of the items mentioned, there was still plenty of room left over. Now that is my kind of bag!
Not only is the On The Go / Bringing Up Baby Bag great as a diaper bag, but it also works well as a gym bag or lap top bag once the diaper bag phase ends. Talk about a truely amazing bag. Juice packs turned into a magnificent bag that can be used in multiple ways - very eco-friendly!
Half The Sky Designs also takes empty rice sacks, and turns them into gorgeous Rice Sack Graphic Handbags. Like the Juicy Handwoven Rebagz, there are so many different Rice Sack Graphic Handbags to choose from too.
With so many beautiful handbags to choose from, I could just spend hours upon hours browsing around on their website. To see for yourself, visit www.rebagz.com to see all of the different kinds of eco-fabulous bags that they have to offer.
I have fallen in love with the Monkey Foot Designs wetbags! They are made from beautiful high quality fabrics which means it will look amazing wash after wash. The inside lining is made from ProCare which is much thicker than most wetbag lining that I have seen; therefore, it is more durable.I really like that the wetbags from Monkey Foot Designs has a snap on strap.

My child's diaper bag always seems to be a bottomless pit when it comes to finding a pacifier, or a pair of socks. I literally have to pull everything out just to find that one little thing that I desperately need. It also seems like this happens at the most inopportune times such as when I am roaming the grocery store, and my daughter suddenly starts crying at the top of her lungs! Anyone else have this problem?
Well, I have recently come across the answer! An ecospun felt pouch from Segparker's Shop. What a life saver. They give you enough storage to put your child's pacifiers, socks, or any of the small things that could get sucked down the bottomless pit. It is so much easier to find a decent sized pouch than a tiny winy pacifier. Not only can this pouch be used as storage for your diaper bag needs, but you can also use it as a make-up case, snack bag, etc.
Segparker's Shop hand stitches each pouch with such beautiful perfection. Since each pouch is custom made, you get to choose your felt colors, tag color, and the animal that you want. These pouches are very soft and very cute. Plus they are eco-friendly because the ecospun felt is made out of fiber that is 100 % post-consumer recycled plastic bottles.
I definitely think it is worth $13.00 to be able to find what you are looking for within a seconds notice. Not only are you getting convenience, but your also getting an adorable pouch that's eco-friendly! Check out www.segparker.etsy.com to see all of the ecospun pouches as well as the other neat products that you can purchase.
Functional, beautiful, and environmentally friendly. Now these are words that I like to hear about a product. Peanut Tree Designs is a company that has all of these elements in their products. My personal favorite is the organic bottle cover for glass baby bottles.
