“The “Jade Rabbit” entry which won the design competition of the Macau Pavilion for the 2010 Shanghai World Expo will be able to showcase Macau in “a soft but impressive way”, said the head of the Macau organising cabinet .”

Handmade with a Past: Tuesday’s Top Recycled Etsy Find

You know when you throw on something and suddenly feel like you’ve traveled somewhere soulful and sun-soaked? That’s exactly the vibe of this patch sari kimono jacket—handmade from recycled vintage saris and bursting with history, texture, and bohemian elegance.

Each robe is stitched from salvaged sari fabric, and you can actually feel the stories in the layers—like it’s already lived a few lifetimes before landing in your wardrobe. I once picked up a similar piece on a market trip years ago, and every time I wore it, strangers would stop me to ask where it came from. This one? It’s got that energy.

This beauty is more than just clothing—it’s a walking love letter to sustainable fashion, slow design, and upcycled style with soul. It’s roomy, relaxed, and unapologetically bold. Whether you’re wearing it over jeans, swimwear, or just floating around your house pretending you live in a Bali treehouse (guilty ), this piece turns every moment into a mood.

Why we’re swooning over it:

  • Crafted from recycled sari fabric, giving textiles a second life

  • Each one is completely unique—no fast fashion clones here

  • Perfect for eco-conscious fashionistas and free-spirited souls

Wrap yourself in recycled beauty that feels as good as it looks. It’s wearable art, and it’s ready to tell your story next.
