Most of us toss wrapper after wrapper and empty package after package into the garbage can without giving a thought to what all of that trash does to our planet. Little by little people are beginning to become aware of the need to keep our planet clean and to recycle. One attempt at conserving materials is by recycling items such as candy wrappers, newspapers, and plastic bags, and transforming them into retro looking handbags, wallets, and other accessories. These eco-fashion items are already being used by celebrities like Cameron Diaz and Lindsay Lohan. Hopefully others will follow suit and be more environmentally conscious.
