Old Cassettes Transform Into Cute Wallets

cassettewallet Old Cassettes Transform Into Cute Wallets

Check out these cute and functional wallets made from upcycled cassette tapes by Marcella Foschi.  They’re available for $39 on Design Boom and would make a great Christmas gift for all those eco-friendly girls on your Christmas list this year.  Yes, I know that Christmas is still months away but it really does pay off to shop ahead!

Imagine how many of these tapes have been tossed into landfills around the world with the advent of the CD.  There’s probably enough tapes sitting in the garbage to fill all the purses of even a shop-a-holic purse lover!!  These are definitely worth checking out.  As they are each handmade, each one is different.  You could get anything from an Alvin and the Chipmunks cassette to a Slayer cassette to the Beach Boys!  You’ve got to absolutely love something so entirely random…

    Thanks for the good PR!  I always wanted to record a song for each of my kids.  Never had the voice.  But, at least I’ve got a printer to print the label…. would be fun to buy a couple of these cassette wallets and put on a custom label with my song title for each kid, don’t ya think?
