1009bagStrength, spring, and flexibility, that's why we trust our lives to seatbelts. So why dispose of this amazing material in the junkyard? That's the question that led to this new tote. They are as resilient as the women who make them! These are made from recycled seat belts gathered in New Delhi by Conserve India, a non-governmental organization (NGO) on the cutting edge of both environmental issues and women's fair trade. The lining is made of recycled denim.

Birt offering earringsIn some parts of India offerings of metal body parts are made to a favorite deity seeking remedy in that part. Women artisans that recycle these metal offerings into artistic jewelry pieces, procure them directly from the temple, once they’re offered. Offering of body parts is not unique to India; it’s a tradition paralleling Hispanic folk culture in South America known as Milagros or Miracle. Arms, legs, even fruits and vegetables are offered to their saint as a reminder of the devotee’s need or in thanks for a prayer answered.
