These beautiful and useful bags have not been made in a sweat shop in India by children paid pennies. They have been made in the rolling hills of Buckinghamshire by Carole who is paid with cat food and trips to garden centres.
Most of the bags are reversible so that you can change the bag's look according to your mood. They have wide and long handles so they feel comfortable either carried on your shoulder or by hand. The boxy design means that you can get more bits and bobs in. They are double stitched for durability and longevity. They are washable and eco friendly.
Use these bags instead of the ubiquitous plastic carrier bag. We are all concerned about the damage unnecessary plastic is doing to the environment.
At Beads of Paradise we want you to do your bit for the environment and look good at the same time.
Expressing individuality each bag has a "designer name" which is attached to the bag by a handmade tag and a discreet Beads of Paradise name label hand sewn onto it. We would like you to tell people about us if you want to, but we will not rely on you to advertise on our behalf.
