Where Does the Name Come From?
The name of the company "From The Blue Bag" comes from the blue bags that Clevelanders are required to put their recyclables in when trash is collected in Cleveland. All of the materials for From The Blue Bag would have been placed in those blue bags if they were not rescued by Deby and her staff. Below are a list of the products available for purchase.
The #1 Green Wedding Gift
From The Blue Bag's Most Popular Gift Item
This laser engraved customizable green wedding bottle gift can be made with a champagne bottle or wine bottle. The champage bottle version is pictured here. From The Blue Bag will laser engrave the actual wedding invitation right into the glass of the bottle, and it comes with a stand, ribbons, and rings.

My Personal Favorite--The Recycled Olive Oil Dipping Tray
Recycled from olive oil bottles
This recycled olive oil bottle with turned into an Olive Oil Dipping Tray is my favorite of all the gifts made by From The Blue Bag. The bottles come from a local Italian restaurant, and are olive oil bottles. Then Deby and crew turns them into Olive Oil Dipping Trays with a small bottle of olive oil and pepper included. They make a great gift for just about anyone including men (always the hardest to buy for in my opinion), and they can be shipped or carried easily.

Recycled Wine Bottle Dish with Dilly Dip and Spoon
Great for Christmas gifts
If you are looking for a unique gift for a close friend or relative for an engagement or Christmas, this recycled Wine Bottle with Dilly Dip is a good choice. The dish is made from a full sized wine bottle, and comes with the dip and a spoon. The only thing you need to add is the sour cream and some people to eat it.
These dishes are so great because you can put them in the freezer to keep them cold before you use them and they will stay cold for about two hours. If you are serving a hot dish, you can put the serving bowl in the oven to keep it warm.

Recycled Grey Goose Cheese Tray
Grey Goose bottles are really beautiful and they make great recycled glass cheese trays. Sometimes From The Blue Bag can get the Grey Goose orange or lemon bottles which are also very beautiful. For more information or to order this product, follow this link.
Recycled Absolute Bottle Cheese Tray
This Absolute bottle cheese tray is one of our customers' favorites. Because Absolute bottles do not come with a paper label, and the label is actually painted on the glass, From The Blue Bag is able to fire the label right into the glass when they made the cheese tray.For more information or to order this recycled glass cheese tray, follow this link.
