Upcycled Prescription Bottle Sewing Kit — Blue African Wax Print #0501016
Prescription bottles are not meant to be recycled in NYC, the city I live, and become unintentional environmental hazards in the soil and the oceans. I collect them, wrap them with small pieces of recycled fabric, pack them with folding scissors, two needles, two kinds of color threads, two safety pins, and install a small pin cushion on the inside of each lid. They are eco friendly and visually attractive, but the most important aspect of the product is its functionality. When everyone starts fixing and mending their garments on their own, such as frayed hems and missing buttons, the life span of clothing would be significantly extended, thus keeping them away from landfills.
Many of my items are unique, because they are handmade and the source materials are limited.
This sewing kit comes in 2 different sizes; 5.75" high x 2.25" diameter and 2.75" high x 1.5" diameter.
