ECO FIND

ECO BAGS Don’t add to the landfill with what you’re putting in your kids’ lunch bags. We love Stitches of Green’s fun, eco-friendly sandwich and snack packs, which are machine-washable, liquid-resistant, and BPA-, PVC-, and phthalatefree. They’re cuter than any plastic wrap, with prints including cars, bicycles, planes, and hot-air balloons dancing across a turquoise background; a flock of multicoloured owls; black cats purring against bright purple; and chic geometrics for adults who want to go green too. There’s no Velcro, snaps, or elastic; the top folds over simply and snugly (about $3 to $5 each). Look for Stitches of Green at the Make It!
