The Grandmothers Country Recycled Plastic Bottle Bags are stylish and functional, but they're also support sustainability! Each bag is created using three plastic bottles, meaning they're great for the planet by reducing waste through recycling.

These sturdy, lightweight shopping bags fold down to a handy size to pop in your bag so you're ready for anything.

Michelle Possum the Indigenous artist who created The Grandmothers Country artwork was born at Napperby Station, near Alice Springs. She was taught by her father Clifford Possum Tjapaltjarri. 

Michelle’s work has a strong connection to her father, family and land. Mainly depicting the overview of maps of traditional Country from her family lands, Michelle describes the many important cultural sites she knows well. Her paintings have gained wide popularity partly due to the fact that as we come to understand the iconography, the paintings make fascinating narratives for a western audience. They are populated not only with plants and food resources and waterholes, but also with people sitting in the landscape – men with hunting implements and women with digging sticks and coolamons. 

By purchasing products that are sustainable, you are making a positive impact on both the present and future state of our environment. (104284)
