Bottletop

I have discovered these fantastic products made by a charity called Bottletop. Not only do they make amazing things, but all the proceeds fund a number projects educating teenagers across the world about delicate health issues such as HIV/AIDS, unplanned teen pregnancy, drug abuse and gender equality. 

Also the making of the bags helps people living in the slums in Brazil earn money by collecting ring pulls from old cans and selling them to the people who have learned to make the bags and other accessories from these recycled bottle tops, it seems everyone benefits from this scheme, at every stage. Including us, as we get to buy these fantastic accessories! I have a few items made by bottle top and they are just fantastic! I have never seen anything thing else like them, I love it.
