Back-to-school is often synonymous with new purchases: school supplies, office accessories or even bags. Yet this period of renewal can also be the perfect opportunity to rethink our consumer habits. Rather than giving in to buying new items, why not explore the possibility of creating unique, personalized accessories from unused textiles?
At Tilli, we believe in creativity and sustainability. By transforming textiles you already own, you can not only reduce your expenses, but also do something for the environment by limiting waste. Whether for children's school supplies or adults' professional accessories, we offer tailor-made upcycling solutions made by our skilled craftsmen.
Upcycling is a creative and eco-responsible approach to transforming unused or worn textiles into practical and aesthetic objects. Rather than throwing away old clothes, tablecloths or sheets, you can reinvent them to create useful accessories for back-to-school or back-to-business. Every fabric has untapped potential, and our craftsmen are here to help you bring it back to life.
With Tilli, upcycling becomes simple and accessible. Whether you want to create a pencil case, a notebook protector or even a computer sleeve, our experts can help you create personalized accessories that are both beautiful and durable.
Notebook covers are a must-have back-to-school accessory, but why opt for plastic when you can create a stylish, eco-friendly fabric cover? Not only is fabric more resistant, it can also be washed and reused year after year.
Our craftsmen can transform textiles such as :
- Antique or embroidered sheets
- Tablecloths you no longer use
- Cotton shirts or garments
These fabrics, once cut and sewn, can become beautiful personalized notebook covers. With floral, geometric or embroidered motifs, each notebook cover becomes a unique piece to accompany your children or even your own notebooks. Our craftsmen offer a tailor-made service to create notebook covers that match your tastes and needs.
Whether for pens, pencils or office accessories, the fabric pencil case is a back-to-school must-have. Why not take advantage of upcycling to create one from unused textiles? It's easy to make, requires very little fabric and can be customized to your own personal taste.
For children, our craftsmen can transform an old sleeping bag, an embroidered garment or a bath towel into a practical and fun kit. Each kit is made to measure, with a sturdy zipper and lining to ensure durability.
For adults, the pencil case can be transformed into a stylish desk accessory, perfect for storing pens, cables or small stationery items. Using quality fabrics, such as linen or cotton, our craftsmen create practical yet aesthetically pleasing kits, perfect for organizing your business supplies.
One of the most important back-to-school accessories is the laptop sleeve. Rather than buying a new sleeve, you can opt for a customized, upcycled version, made from textiles you already own. Our craftsmen can transform sturdy, resistant fabrics into tailor-made sleeves to protect your computer.
Why choose an Upcycled Fabric Sleeve?
- Protection: By choosing strong fabrics, such as a thick old sheet or embroidered tablecloth, we guarantee a sleeve that protects your computer from bumps and scratches.
- Elegance: Unlike standardized sleeves on the market, a sleeve made from upcycled fabric offers a unique touch of elegance and personalization.
- Durability: Once lined and reinforced, fabric is an excellent alternative to synthetic materials, guaranteeing long-lasting protection for your professional equipment.
Our craftsmen take care of every step, from cutting to adding a zipper or snap, to create a pouch that combines style and functionality.
Another essential accessory for professionals is the notepad protector. Ideal for organizing your meetings or keeping your notes safe, the notepad protector can also be made from upcycled fabrics. Whether you use shirt fabric, a linen tablecloth or a garment you no longer wear, our craftsmen can help you create a stylish and practical business accessory.
Advantages of a Fabric Notepad Protector
- Durability: Unlike cardboard or plastic notepads, fabric is more resistant and offers better protection against daily wear and tear.
- Personalization: Our craftsmen can customize the notepad protector with embroidery or unique motifs, according to your preferences. You can even add interior pockets for pens or business cards.
- Ecological: By choosing to transform unused textiles, you reduce waste and contribute to a more environmentally-friendly approach.
An ecological gesture
Upcycling is an ideal solution for limiting waste and extending the life of your textiles. By choosing to transform existing materials rather than buy new ones, you reduce your environmental impact and help reduce the carbon footprint associated with the production of new objects.
Create unique accessories
With upcycling, every accessory is unique. Depending on the fabrics you choose, our artisans can create objects that are uniquely yours, taking into account your preferences in terms of color, pattern or functionality. Whether you're looking for a stylish business accessory or something more fun for the kids' back-to-school, Tilli offers a personalized service to meet your needs.
