Feb

The new Channel 4 series: Home of the Future features Bag It Don't Bin It as an epitome of a green collar business of the future.  We spent a great day last summer with Miah from the Perera family.  She undertook work experience at our business with one of her friends and both went home with an eco-bag that she designed and made at Bag It Don't Bin It.

 See a snapshot video of the day at Home of the Future

 Watch the series and find out how we will be living in the future! .... Sundays, 7pm Channel 4.

Bags We've Papped!

We love spotting and photographing bags that we have printed for our customers when we're on our travels.  We recently came across this canvas eco-bag we made for Frieze, who organise art fairs, in front of a piece of modern art at the Pompidou Centre in Paris!  Exactly where it should be!

Trade Shows

by Sally Moore

Feb

The sales team at Bag It Don't Bin It have just been showing at both The Spring Fair in Birmingham and Pure in London. Both were amazing shows and so well attended. Existing clients and new alike loved the new designer range by Maude and Tilda, designed by  Nicole Lochers, people laughed outloud as they walked passed and read her cheeky slogans! 

 

The Jubilee Range which was designed by our very own director, Julia also attracted much interest and the orders came in thick and fast.  Everyone loved the "I Love Liz" Badge and free bunting! If you haven't seen these new ranges yet get in touch and ask for the Buyers Guides.

For all those people who stopped by to see us a big, big thank you and we will be in touch soon.

The Welsh governement has lead the way by imposing a charge of 5p for every single use carrier bag.  

When will everyone else realise the damage these bags are doing to our planet and follow suit?
