Ecoist Handbags Made From Candy Wrappers

“You want some of my Crispy Crunch? Well, you can have the wrapper and sew it into a bag...” That’s exactly what Spanish designer Marisa Rey did when she created her stylish line of handbags.




Each handbag is made from carefully selected, woven, and sewn candy wrappers. And they’re hot. At least ABC, Teen Magazine, MTV Fashion and Elle think so. Score.





“Ecoist was founded in 2004 with the objective to merge design, functionality, and environmental awareness to provide stylish, useful, and durable products you’ll be happy to own.




Most importantly, our goal is to inspire thought and a positive change in the way we treat our precious planet.




We believe you can enjoy your modern lifestyle and buy all your favorite “things” while doing good to the Earth. That’s how we came up with the term “Ecoist” and defined it as “an individual that seeks a modern, eco-friendly lifestyle”. Ecoist.com
