Gorilla Sacks are stylish bags designed and manufactured from recycled billboard vinyl ($20-68$). The bags are made in Atlanta, Georgia from locally sourced used billboard vinyl. The material is carefully analyzed and cut into fabric pieces based on the overall billboard image and the final product design. After careful selection they head over to local sewmasters who transform the vinyl pieces into final products. The result is a one of a kind product with a distinct look and feel based on the original billboard. We really like the Classic Messenger bag ($48) which is large enough to carry a notebook computer and other files. But it doesn’t stop with the messenger bag, the company offers a full line from small accessories to handbags and totes. Gorilla Sacks are available in select retail stores and through the GorillaSacks.com online store.

YAVA Glass creates unique, one of a kind pieces of art from upcycled glass bottles. Raw materials of choice include bottles with screen printed or etched labels. The recycled bottles are upcycled into drinking glasses, coasters, and other products by carefully cutting the bottles down to size and sanding/rounding over the exposed edges. The process creates a smooth rim on the glass and protects your lips in the process (this might just be the most important step in the process). The final product preserves the unique label of the original beverage bottle and creates a very unique piece of art in the process. Check out all of the bottles and products from YAVA Glass on their Etsy storefront.
