A Pinch Of Art

“I always feel the desire to look for the extraordinary in ordinary things; to suggest, not to impose, to leave always a slight touch of mystery in my paintings.”

Balthus, Designed by Mehmet Ali Uysal

Sassy Eco Bags

Posted on by capeannpainter

Sassy Eco Bags are uniquely designed handbags, purses and totes.  Each bag has been handcrafted from discarded coffee or tea bags from area coffee houses.  By rescuing these materials and reusing them, they are kept away from dumps and landfills.  The materials used in each bag are durable as well as attractively functional.  I hope you enjoy the bag.

  Feel free to feel good about helping the Earth and looking Sassy at the same time.
