Target to Turn Billboards Into Eco-Friendly Bags

target_billboards_08-092

Target’s latest gotta-have-it fashion launch is a little different from their usual GO International featured fashion designers like Loomstate’s Spring 2009 collection. This time, they’re experimenting in upcycled fashion. From Labor Day weekend through October 31, Target’s Times Square billboards will feature commissioned art from Michael Anderson, Josh Goldstein and other emerging artists. But what happens after the billboards come down is the most exciting–the vinyl billboards will be made into 1,600 limited-edition bags.

Not only will you get a piece of the art that was on-display high above Times Square, the upcycled bag is a tote designed by Anna Sui. 90% of each bag will be made from the vinyl billboard material, and have a few add-ons such as black enamel studs and other rock-and-roll details.

The eco-friendly bags go on sale on Target.com today, Friday, September 4, for $29.99.  Click here to read more

Eco-Friendly Bags in Kid-Friendly Prints

From pushing shopping carts around to dressing up in her high heels, often, kids want to be just like mommy. Set an example and get your kids on the right track early, by getting your little ones a reusable shopping tote just like yours. Or not quite like yours…get the kids one made just for them like Envirosax Kids Shopper.

At the grocery store your child can feel grown up carrying a few food items home on his own in the dino clad Jessie & Lulu bag. Or keep a bright pink Piggy in the Middle bag in your handbag so she has something to carry her crafts home in from preschool. With bags covered in Tubby teddy bears, flowers and bunnies, you’re sure to find one your kid will love.
