Our stunning handmade upcycled makeup bags are perfect for storing your daily essentials or your favourite makeup or skincare products. They're also great for travel or staying organised on the go. The fabric is pre-loved cotton sari cloth, repurposed from secondhand saris sourced in India.
Each soft cotton bag is spacious and lined with cotton, and has four handy separate inner pockets (2 on each side) - perfect for keeping your bits and bobs organised. Meticulously stitched and sewn together by talented artisans in Jaipur, these toiletry bags are specially designed to fit into any handbag, rucksack, or carry-on bag.
This beautiful bag combines straight even rows of hand stitching known as kantha, traditional to Northwestern India and Bangladesh. The word 'kantha' means 'patched cloth' and women from this region have made functional shawls like this for centuries. These stunning kantha products are superimposed layers of repurposed saris, carefully hand-sewn with neat rows of contrasting thread to form a beautiful finished looping scarf.
Each bag has the hand-stitched name of its maker sewn into the cloth.
*Any colourful cloth showns inside the pouch are shown for demonstrative purposes only, and are not included
