About Eco On The Go
The first time I made a cutlery kit was because I needed one for my work lunches and couldn't find an affordable one in store! Then I made some for my friends who loved the idea and wanted one for themselves or to give as gifts, which then lead me to selling them through Instagram and word of mouth! I then began making the zip pouches. Again, I needed a gift for a friend who was travelling and thought it would be super useful for her sanitizer, hair ties etc.! And lastly my tote bags, the first one I made because my grandma passed away and I wanted to make something using her old material/sewing supplies. So I made the Thelma Tote in her memory.
The cutlery in my kits are all from op shops! This way we can have better quality cutlery at a more affordable price and some eclectic designs! The kits also come with a stainless steel straw which can be reused over and over again! The cotton drawstring bags are handmade by me in different colours and patterns to suit any and every one!
The zip pouches are made with zips that again are all from op shops! About half of the materials for my pouches I find second hand. The pouches are all double lined, the inner lining is thicker flannelette so they are all sturdy and great quality, not flimsy!
Some of my tote bags are made using second hand material. The inner white lining and handles always are! They are made to be sturdy and suitable for everyday use!
