You are invited to join in making a difference. The Re.Bag.Re.Use team transforms clean, soft plastic into stylish, functional products, making something out of nothing. Not only does your support help to keep plastic from ending up in landfills, but Re.Bag.Re.Use also supports 21 households. Additionally, a percentage of each sale is donated to the Neighbourhood Old Age Home (NOAH) and the SPCA, spreading the love as far as possible.
Thank you for helping make a positive impact on both the environment and the community.
Re.Bag.Re.Use is an initiative that started off as a hobby during the Covid-19 lockdown, where empty bread bags were being repurposed and crocheted into beautiful shopping bags. It has successfully been building momentum in Hout Bay, Cape Town and is now extending its footprint to Koedoespoort, Pretoria.
The idea is to repurpose your clean, soft plastic into beautiful bags; instead of the plastic bags landing up as an unsightly mess next to the side of the road, landfill or ocean.
With Re.Bag.Re.Use we are able to reduce some of the plastic generated and at the same time create an opportunity for women to make extra pocket money and be able to put bread on the table by making beautiful functional products.
Please watch our video on 'How to crochet a living from empty bread bags' ~ We hope you enjoy this video!
