    Beneterre Cocoon Bags 

    Beneterre is a company based in Englewood that claims their products are fashionably good for the earth. The Cocoon bag is a pretty smart idea. You can’t really find anything wrong with reusable bags, except they only come in handy if you remember to bring them to the store; Beneterre has fixed that problem. The cocoon bag folds completely into itself, fitting in a neat package. The package can then fit into your purse or your pocket.

    Colorado Homes and Lifestyles Features Beneterre Design Style

    Somehow, reusable bags have become more than environmentally friendly tools for lugging home milk, bread and eggs. They’ve become a fashion statement. I admit that I find myself admiring particularly interesting fabrics or patterns when I’m cruising down the dairy aisle at the grocery store, so I was really delighted to discover Beneterre, a Colorado-based company that designs and produces beautiful reusable bags and totes.

    The bag I have is called “The Cocoon.” It folds into itself and seals with velcro, so it’s the size of a small paperback book. Unfolded, it holds a good amount of stuff and stands on its own, and it’s machine washable. Other models include a mesh produce bag, a cotton string bag called “The Clam” and “The Splash” (seen here), which the company claims will hold three times as much as a plastic grocery bag.

    Bene Bags, as they’re called, are available at a handful of Front Range boutiques–no mountain locations just yet. For a full list of stores, visit the company’s website, www.beneterre.com.
