Upcycled Stand-Up Pouch | One-of-a-Kind CYC'd Original
 
Trash Never Looked So Good.
 
What if the most interesting thing in your handbag wasn't what was inside it... but the bag itself?
 
Meet the Upcycled Stand-Up Pouch from the CYC'd Collection — a one-of-a-kind piece handcrafted from rescued soft plastics that were destined for landfill and transformed into something useful, beautiful, and conversation-worthy.
No two are ever the same.
 
Whether you're organising cosmetics, crochet hooks, travel essentials, stationery, chargers, or life's little treasures, this pouch stands proudly on its own, making everything easy to find without rummaging through the bottom of your bag.
 
More Than a Pouch — It's a Story.
 
Every CYC'd creation begins with materials most people overlook.
 
This unique piece has been lovingly handcrafted using recycled soft plastics fused into a durable, flexible fabric-like material. Hidden within its layers are everyday items that have been given a second chance.
 
This particular pouch features materials including:
 
• IGA shopping bags
• Upcycled lanyard handle
• Fruit net bags
• Bread bags
• Bubble wrap
• Lolly wrappers
• Caution tape
 
Together they create a bold typographic design packed with texture, colour and character.
 
Includes a Certificate of Authenticity
Each one-of-a-kind CYC'd piece comes with its own Certificate of Authenticity detailing the rescued materials used in its creation, allowing you to share its sustainable origin story wherever it goes.
 
Because sustainability should be meaningful, memorable and a little bit cheeky.

Caring For Your CYC'd Creation

Like any handmade artwork, a little care goes a long way.
• Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap
• Avoid soaking or submerging in water
• Do not machine wash or dry clean
• Keep away from excessive heat and sharp objects
• Avoid overfilling to maintain shape
• Store in a cool, dry place when not in use
 
The CYC'd Philosophy
 
HeartMade Crafts believes that creativity can transform more than materials.
My sustainable project CYC'd is about seeing potential where others see waste, celebrating resourcefulness, and proving that beautiful things can come from unexpected beginnings.
 
Every rescued piece tells a story.
