			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Etsy shopping&#8230;. The <strong>Peeko Apparel</strong> shop at <strong>Etsy</strong> is stocked with unique handmade clothing items made from reclaimed, recycled, can reconditioned materials. I really like the tunics, some as long as short dresses, made from men&#8217;s dress shirts. She reuses parts of the shirts &#8211; collars, sleeves, etc &#8211; in new ways to make a peaked sleeve or a stand-up collar. Really interesting designs.</p>
<p>The tops are customized &#8211; you pick the color and material combination for your shirt and it&#8217;s sized to your specifications. Each tunic takes 3 weeks to make,  so if you are planning to make it a gift, keep that in mind. </p>
<p>Here are a couple styles of the shirts:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3565" src="http://www.splendicity.com/prettybynature/files/2009/11/ReConstructed-Gentlemens-Shirt-No-Two-Michelle.jpg" alt="ReConstructed Gentlemen's Shirt No Two Michelle" width="430" height="437" /></p>
<p><a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_1&amp;listing_id=33960373">ReConstructed Gentlemen&#8217;s Dres Shirt #2</a><br />
$70</p>
<blockquote><p>This cute little number is reconstructed from a gentlemen&#8217;s dress shirt. Cleverly altered and upcycled for a playful girly touch. Asymmetrical kimono style sleeves. Chunky stretch Ribbed scooped collar adorned with ruffles. Removable Brooch, made of cluster of buttons and ribbon, add little touch of embellishment, removable for washing, or even worn on an outer shell to make a matching combo to your look.. Matching stretch ribbing waist band, pulls over easily.</p></blockquote>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3566" src="http://www.splendicity.com/prettybynature/files/2009/11/Dads-Plaid-Hand-Me-Down-ReConstructed-Shirt-Michelle.jpg" alt="Dads Plaid Hand Me Down ReConstructed Shirt Michelle" width="430" height="397" /></p>

<p>His 10-piece collection was inspired by the cartoons of the 1990s, &#8220;when cartoons were awesome.&#8221; To check out the rest of his line, go to the show&#8217;s <a href="http://www.slice.ca/Shows/ProjectRunwayCanada/PhotoGallery/">official site</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.fiveaccessories.com/">Five Accessories</a> is an online store dedicated to bringing you the latest and greatest in <strong>handmade, grassroots, sustainable handbags</strong>. Their products include accessories made out of <strong>bamboo, recycled materials, coconut shells</strong> and more &#8212; the materials reflect the geographical location they were made in and the designer&#8217;s vision.</p>
<p>They have four major lines: <a href="http://www.fiveaccessories.com/varieties/handbags/Bali_Bags.htm">Bali bags</a>, <a href="http://www.fiveaccessories.com/varieties/handbags/Guatemala_Bags.htm">Guatemala bags</a>, <a href="http://www.fiveaccessories.com/varieties/handbags/Emerging_USA_Designers.htm">USA designers</a>, and <a href="http://www.fiveaccessories.com/varieties/handbags/Honduras_Eco_Bags.htm">Honduras environment bags</a>. I&#8217;m going to share with you a few favorites.</p>
<p><strong>Bali Bag</strong><br />
This line has tons of different materials and designs, but I love the geometric shapes of this <strong>coconut</strong> bag. $5.00 of each sale will <strong>support schoolchildren</strong> and education in Bali.<br />
<img src="http://www.splendicity.com/prettybynature/files/2007/10/bali-bag.jpg" alt="bali bag" /><br />
Each clutch has a satin lining. You have your choice of three sizes &#8212; 8&#8243; x 6&#8243; for $40.00; 10&#8243; x 6&#8243; for $45.00; and 12&#8243; x 6&#8243; for <strong>$50.00</strong>.</p>
<p>All the sizes can be ordered by <a href="http://www.fiveaccessories.com/details/Coconut.htm">clicking here</a>.</p>
<p>More bags below the jump!</p>
<p><span id="more-1342"></span></p>
<p><strong>USA Designers</strong><br />
Designer Kristina Witherspoon has a few products that are exclusive to Five Accessories, including her line of geometric black-and-white bags. This clutch is made out of circle print cotton. I&#8217;ll be honest &#8212; the eco-ness of this bag isn&#8217;t clear on the website, but it is always good to support up-and-coming designers.<br />
<img src="http://www.splendicity.com/prettybynature/files/2007/10/clutch.jpg" alt="clutch" /><br />
This clutch is <strong>$45.00</strong> and can be ordered <a href="http://www.fiveaccessories.com/details/Limelight_Clutch.htm">here</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Guatemala Bag</strong><br />
The bags in the Guatemala line have a very different feel &#8212; they are soft and romantic and elegant. I love this bag because while it isn&#8217;t &#8220;me&#8221; at all, it would integrate seamlessly into my wardrobe and give me that extra floral pop without being overwhelming.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.splendicity.com/prettybynature/files/2007/10/floral.jpg" alt="floral" /><br />
$5.00 from the sale of this bag goes to support <a href="http://safepassage.com">www.safepassage.com</a>. It&#8217;s <strong>$65.00 </strong>and is available <a href="http://www.fiveaccessories.com/details/Large_Floral_Wood_Handle.htm">here</a>. There are other color options available, but you need to contact the company directly to find out more.</p>
<p><strong>Five Accessories </strong>sells way more than just bags. They have bracelets, earrings, jewelry and much more! <a href="http://fiveaccessories.com">Head over there</a> to check it all out.</p>

I haven&#8217;t heard word about whether or not the behind-the-scenes procedures are getting a green makeover too, but it&#8217;s still good to hear about all the ethical and environmental designers being showcased.
New eco-magazine Sprig.com is promising to follow all the green events with polls, videos, pictures and more. Be sure to check it out from time to time this week.
