Shopping Bags - Kris Luber Collection

Shopping Bags - Kris Luber Collection

Full Circle

    This bag has been transformed into a true work of art and donated to Full Circle by local artist Kris Luber. Each one is unique, featuring all reused materials, and comes with a note about the artist. It makes an excellent gift—or a lovely way to tote your items around town.

    About the Bag:

    This bag was rescued from a local company after a printing error left it all but destined for the landfill. Kris has covered the logo with her own design made with pre-loved fabric. 

    While this is a relatively sustainable bag, we should note that the most sustainable bag is the bag you already own. (See our blog post on shopping bag sustainability for more thoughts on this.) If you already have a bunch of bags, don't feel like you need to add ours to your collection. But if you're in the market for another one, this bag is a beauty with a sustainability story to tell! 

    About the Artist:

    Kris has been showing her fabric collages in Kansas galleries since 2009. She’s best known for her prairie landscapes featuring colorful skies and rolling hills dotted with native grasses and wildflowers. Her award-winning work has been included in the Visions of the Flint Hills Show and Symphony in the Flint Hills Art Auction. The Kansas Museum stores are among the many gift shops that sell her one-of-a-kind “Little Landscapes” mounted as greeting cards.

    All of Kris’ art materials are post-consumer goods. She uses many textiles and techniques—piecing, applique, couching, felting, thread painting, and hand beading. Kris never buys anything new, using instead a vast selection of textiles from her family’s accumulation, creative reuse stores, and generous friends. Her goal is to take excess materials destined to the landfill and turn them into works of art. It's a rare day when she doesn’t have a needle in hand to sew something.
