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

May 6, 2025 by Shellie Wilson

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.

A Swoon for a Spoon: My Thoughts on Sadie Seasongoods’ Cameo Pendants

Okay, so let me just say, I’m obsessed with these spoon cameo pendants from Sadie Seasongoods! If you’re into unique jewelry that has a vintage vibe, but with a modern twist, then you have to check these out. Seriously, I’ve been wearing mine non-stop, and every time I do, someone asks where I got it from. It’s definitely become one of those signature pieces for me.

If you’re wondering what exactly a spoon cameo pendant is, let me explain. Sadie Seasongoods takes actual spoons and transforms them into these beautiful pendants. Yes, you read that right—spoons! They’re upcycled, which is such a cool idea, and the designs feature intricate cameos. The mix of the shiny metal and the detailed artwork gives it such a timeless, charming look. Plus, each one feels totally one-of-a-kind.

I don’t know about you, but I love accessories that can make a statement. These spoons have this vintage charm to them—think retro with a little bit of modern edge. The cameos on the spoons range from cute florals to more abstract patterns. Each pendant feels like a piece of art, and you can tell a lot of care went into crafting them. You can see the full tutorial here.
