The front panel of this bag shows three bold stripes: an orange gradient, a cream, and a lighter orange. The back panel is an abstract spiral of grapefruit orange and cream. Note: this bag has a scratch on the front. This is the nature of Bag-Free Bayou's upcycling— these bags are made out of real banners, which means some bags will have imperfections.

In 4th grade we started a petition to ban single-use plastic bags in the City of Houston. It bothered us that plastic bags polluted our neighborhood park and bayou. Marine life like turtles swallow the bags thinking that they’re jellyfish and wash onto beaches all over the world, dead. Plastic bags clog our storm drains and make our flooding worse too.

We wanted an alternative. We partnered with a former refugee from Afghanistan named Khatera Khorushan to “upcycle” used clothing and vinyl banners into beautiful, sturdy reusable bags. We are creating a virtuous cycle of employment, upcycling, and ecological health.

This beautiful bag and your support in using it will help us make a difference. Thank you.
