“ … Gather up the leftover fragments, that nothing may be lost.” — John 6:12

This Earth Day, we’re proud to honor the planet with artisan-crafted items throughout FMSC MarketPlace™ made from recycled and repurposed materials. Each piece reflects creativity, sustainability and the impact of giving new life to discarded materials.

The process may be complex and time-consuming, but the transformation is so worth it. Here are a few of our favorite recycled pieces available at FMSC MarketPlace:

SaySo Collective bags

What began in 2011 as a recognition of the creativity and resourcefulness of a few Filipino women has grown into a life-giving ministry. SaySo Collective empowers women through meaningful work, education, and opportunities to lead and uplift their community.

Each SaySo Collective bag is uniquely handcrafted using interwoven strips of upcycled plastic—an effort to reduce local waste and turn discarded materials into something beautiful and purposeful. When you purchase a bag, you’re doing more than carrying a unique, eco-conscious piece—you’re carrying a story of resilience, dignity and hope for a brighter tomorrow. Shop now
