Recycled Diaper Bag - from truck inner tubes

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

diaperbagdad.jpg
This is billed as “dad’s” baby case, but I think it is mighty cool for Mom, too! Created from recycled truck inner tube tires, it is of course sturdy and tough in addition to being waterproof and spillproof. …maybe I should say, barfproof! Nice and big to hold all the essentials, with a water resistant polyester lining. Trimmed in black faux leather which makes this a perfect gift for the vegetarian or vegan parents who like to avoid leather.

Her site is filled with horses, monkeys, elephants, lions and even monsters! Many of the toys (like the ones featured here) have embroidered features and are safe for your little ones.
