These attractive bags were made with recycled pull tabs from beverage cans. They have a nylon fabric liner and a zipper closure and they can be worn as part of a casual attire or as an accompanying accessory to an evening dress. The bags, which weigh 1.5 lbs, were made in Brazil by a women’s craft cooperative named Women’s Cooperatives.
