Sustainably Chic Reusable Bags... Look good and do good- All at the same time

Hello and Welcome to Blades Construction Company!

I design one-of-a kind, hand decorated string tote bags, allowing women to express their individual sense of style and protect our environment all at the same time.

I use vintage pieces, buttons and patches, handmade artisan buttons, and trims from all over the world.
They make wonderful and sand-free beach bags AND they hold 40 pounds, the same as a regular plastic shopping bag.
The bags are just like the market bags used in Europe, perfect for storing in your purse or car or back pocket- ready to use at anytime.
The advantage to using my bags is that they allow you to: reduce waste, help save the environment, AND look effortlessly chic.

Uses for the bags:
-Picnics (who doesn't want to walk around with some fresh fruit and a baguette sticking out of their bag?)
-Traveling (great for helping your organize in a suitcase or duffel bag)
-Shopping
-Gym Bag
-Laundry bag, allow your dirty clothes to breathe
-and did I mention the ultimate beach bag- the sand falls right through!



Please take a look and feel free to ask me any questions that you may have about the bags.
