Maggie Stephenson | A Summer Afternoon
We are so excited to team up with artist and Illustrator Maggie Stephenson to bring you these beautiful reusable bags. Born in Poland and raised in Germany, Maggie is an artist and illustrator based in Florida. Her work is influenced by her European upbringing and travels, combining rich textures, vivid colours and shape play.
She created the illustrations for these bags during lockdown. Inspired by being present in the moment, slowing down and enjoying the simple beauties of life. We all know life can get so busy and it's easy to get caught up in that draining energy. But it's never too late to refocus and refuel in nature, with a Kind Bag in hand of course!

MATERIAL
Why choose "100% recycled" material?
100% recycled & recyclable material in all Kind Bags eliminating the need for single-use plastic bags. Vegan and cruelty free. High-quality, premium, strong material that is water-resistant and lightweight.
-
There're so many different bags out in the market to choose from - from cotton, plastic, paper and more. There's of course a reason why we're going for 100% recycled RPET material.
Unfortunately some "eco" bags are not actually ecological for the environment. Except for the plastic pollution in the ocean and landfill, plastic bags are actually the most environmentally-friendly option. Cotton and paper bags actually cost so much more energy to produce, and you need to reuse 7,000 to 20,000 times to have same cumulative environmental impact (water use, energy use, etc.) as a classic plastic bag (source: Denmark’s ministry of environment and food).
So, we believe retrieving plastic waste before polluting the ocean or be stuck in landfill for several hundred years, is a kinder option for our reusable bags.
