Recycled wool skirt made into an awesome tote.
Eco-Chic Entry- Made from ALL recycled materials (except thread.) I found this gorgeous Scottish wool skirt from the 1960's and had to make a big bag out of it! I kept the original skirt details and added a lining, inside pockets, etc. The best feature is the secret outside pocket when you unzip the skirt's side zipper!
More of my bags are in my etsy shop: http://fisheye.etsy.com
