Educational Recycled Diaper Bag

The following information is mostly text and photos from my Etsy store page. I am quite happy with how this item turned out!! :) For the full listing please click on the title of this blog for a link to my store page.



This original is a versatile, large diaper bag made from recycled Del Monte fruit juice pouches. The pouches have all been carefully opened and thoroughly cleaned by myself. Also the glue from the straws has been removed from the front of the pouches.



It measures approximately 13 1/2 inches across, 10 1/2 inches wide by 10 3/4 inches tall. The handle (strap) hangs 22 inches when on your shoulder.

One side of the bag features a large pocket with a center velcro closure. This allows you to place smaller items in the bottom of the pocket and leaves plenty of room to place a bottle or two on either side of the velcro.



The top flap features two 3 1/4 inch velcro strips to allow you to adjust how you close the bag based on how full it is.



I really LOVE this type of bag as it cleans easily with a damp cloth if you or your child happen to spill something on it. It is also very strong and durable for years of use.

Pass it on to others in your family when you have finished with it! It also makes a great gift for a new or experienced Mother. Your toddler may also like it as a carrying bag for all his/her toys and special items when going on an outing. Great as an educational tool when in a doctors office (or waiting for some other appointment), you can make up games pointing out different fruits or colors. Also has fruit names in English and French if you'd like to experiment with another language!

The diaper bag looks great. Hope it sells and starts advertising for itself. I think you've got something there! It should last for a long time.
