My Purpose

Few months back I was considered waste! But to creative minds decide to give a me a new life and transform me into a unique and one-of-a-kind object. From now on I have a new purpose. My mission is allowed you to be hands free. I’ll be by your side carrying all your daily essentials. Together we conquer those busy days.    

Where you can take me?

• I’ll give you support on your medical appointment.
• Let’s go thrifting together.
• Any workshops this weekend? I can go with you.
• The beach is calling us!

Which are my dimensions?

My measurements are approximately 13in x 15in or more. Remember that all of us are handmade with love and patience. You may find irregularities in our materials and dimensions but actually that’s part of our uniqueness. These are the traits that makes each of us unrepeatable just like you.

How to take care of me?

I’m expecting to grow old with you. If I get dirty, you can handwash me and let me dry outside. Maybe I get wrinkles but that’s ok, you can iron me at low temperature and they will go away. What happen if I get damage? Don’t worry! I can be fix or be repurposed. The intension is to reduce massive consumption and learn to value the objects you possess. This way I can be by your side for a longer period and every time we look at each other remind all the memories we’ve created on this journey together.
