Announcement
When I was laid off for 6 months in 2007 I looked for inexpensive craft projects to keep myself busy. I started with purses made from men's ties. The idea of recycling old ties fit with my environmentally conscious lifestyle so it was a great fit. I've moved on to bags made from pillowcases, skirts, curtains and anything else I can fit under the needle of my sewing machine. All items are made from primarily recycled materials.
If there is a style you like but not the color let me know, I may have just the thing waiting to be photographed or sewn. I don't always show the tie purses on my website because most are custom orders made from the ties of someone special in their life. If you would like a purse made from ties that have special meaning for you please send me a 'convo'. I can accomodate most requests.
I hope you find the purses and bags as much fun as I do.
If you would like an item shipped out of the country please let me know and I will get a shipping cost for you.

5 out of 5 starsAnother beautiful bag and so well made. Just what I have been looking for and so happy I found these. I can't believe how quickly I received both bags. Next, I am going to have them monogrammed.

5 out of 5 starsI loved the fact that not only did the purse have Batman on it, but it was technically recycled. It is also very well put together. As far as shipping goes, I received it super fast.

5 out of 5 starsThis was the second Disney weekender duffel bag I purchased from AlternateEndings. I loved the 1st one so I just HAD to get the 2nd one. I'm a seamstress and I can see that she did an excellent job at putting these together. They are strong and durable. And of course ADORABLE. And their customer service and delivery was perfect. She was kind enough to hold the 2nd bag for me for a couple days AND I received each bag within a few days which I did not expect. When they arrived , my kids were so happy. They'll be using them for our Disney trip. I love seeing my kids happy so thank you so much :)
