upcycled bags and stockings by mandinka

Recycled and reclaimed products don’t always turn out looking better than before, but fortunately these bags by Mandinka are definitely what you would call upcycled. Not only have they managed to coordinate disparate sleeves, collars and pockets into a unified work of art, but they’re made to last with reinforced stitching throughout.

In addition to bags, Mandinka also makes absolutely lovely stockings–they’re perfectly shaped into socks, albeit with a cute patchwork style. Some even include extra pockets (and a button or two) for good measure. I’m definitely going to get me some for the coming holiday season! =)
