About Bone’s Bags
Bone’s Bags is a one-woman-show located in San Diego and was started in 2008 by Viena Bone. Inspired by the overwhelming amount of
waste produced by plastic bags, Viena set out to make the world a better place – one reusable grocery bag at a time : ) With this idea, she started designing
and sewing reusable grocery bags out of her home, and continues to do so. Having a
strong, aesthetic dislike for polypropylene (the material that is typically used ingrocery
store totes), Bone's Bags is committed to never using the material. Generally, all reusable shopping bags will strive to be more pleasing to the eye than
the average grocery logo bags.
While saving the world from plastic-bag waste is at the heart of Viena's goal, Bone's Bags also keeps things interesting
by making purses, totes, and handbags out of salvaged fabric and material. All purses and totes are usually one of a kind, and have so far, yet to be duplicated. Requests for different sizes and colors, or any other specifications are always welcome! Just send an email
to viena.bone@bonesbags.com and your wish will be our command.
About Viena Bone
Viena Bone was born and raised in San Diego, CA, where she met and married her husband, Mr. Bone. Shortly thereafter , the couple was temporarily transplanted to HI, where Mr. Bone finished his Navy career of 8 years, Viena received her Bachelor's Degree in Accounting from Hawaii Pacific University, and both were happy to receive the gift of their first daughter before returning home to San Diego in 2010. Currently a stay at home mom as of March 2009, Viena's top priorities in life are maintaining a happy, healthy family, and just trying to do what's right when reasonably possible (e.g. making reusable bags, changing cloth diapers, & returning items to the store when Baby Bone #1 takes without paying). As of November 25th, 2011, the baby-spotlight is now being happily shared between Baby Bone #1, and an equally beautiful Baby Bone #2. A house FULL of girls, except for Mr. Bone and maybe the turtle.
Viena first began sewing as a very young girl, sewing together her own Barbie clothes out of scrap material left over by her grandma. As time has gone on, she has moved
on to bigger and better things, designing and creating random house projects, and craftingsimple, unique, and practical bags. There is nothing that she makes that she wouldn't use herself. So please enjoy the products that Bone's Bags has to offer, and feel free to contact with any questions, comments, or suggestions.
