Why use a Bento bag?

• bento bags are a beautiful replacement for the pesky plastic bag.
• plastic bags rarely get recycled or cannot be recycled. 
• plastic bags are bad for the environment, whilst Bento bags are one with the environment.
• bento bags look beautiful and stylish. plastic bags are rather ugly (I'm sorry I had to say that, plastic bags)

The Bento Bag can be used in so many ways:

• carrying home produce
• taking a snack/lunch to work or to a picnic
• wrapping up a gift (and gift the Bento Bag as well - give the gift of zero waste at a gift-giving time)
• organising items in your suitcase or backpack
• displaying items in your home or shop
• storing items more beautifully inside drawers or cupboards
• storing yarn and other sewing items

How to use a Bento Bag:

• fill the contents of the bag and then tie the ends together once or twice.
• tie once for quicker access.
• tie twice to the contents even more secure.
• carry the bag by holding the knot.

Washing a Bento Bag:

• simply wash in cold water and line dry.
• please try to avoid using one of those naughty tumble dryers, they use a lot of energy.

I keep a Bento Bag or 2 in my backpack, handbag and shopping bag so I am always ready to Refuse the pesky plastic bag.
