Any green thinking person who browses the web (here, here, here) or any fashionista who reads the fashion mags knows their products. But just in case you’ve been away, be sure to check out Ecoist.

Ecoist makes cool-looking handmade one-of-a-kind handbags out of recycled candy wrappers, food packages, and pop labels.

Ecoist was founded in 2004 and besides recycling what would be garbage into functional art, they have a great Buy a Bag, Plant a Tree program where they plant a tree for every bag sold.

Each is one-of-a-kind, so if you see one you want you better grab it quick! Makes a great holiday gift!
