We’re proud to share something deeply meaningful—our brand new website is now live at www.strawbagcompany.com. This isn’t just a visual makeover. It’s the next step in our mission to blend digital convenience with traditional craftsmanship, showcasing our entire collection of beautifully handcrafted, eco-friendly straw bags.

Zero-waste weaving methods passed down for generations

Our bags are made from fast-growing plants like water hyacinth, once considered an invasive species, now transformed into timeless, natural fashion.
