Fortunately, one small artisan group, Uca Ruffatti, is not only helping to clean up the mess, but turning waste it into beautiful and functional works of art! Uca Ruffatti collects the inner tubes from the discarded tires and uses them to create handbags, purses, wallets and cosmetic bags in a variety of sizes and designs. The long-lasting toughness of the material contributes to the products' extensive life and durability. Some items are accented with recycled leather scraps and locally-grown cotton and indigo.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"\" style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 12px;\" border=\"0\" alt=\"UCA: Tire Tubes BW 164x200\" hspace=\"6\" width=\"140\" height=\"171\" align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\"\u003eThe artisans at Uca Ruffatti have repurposed tires and car upholstery to create unique and environmentally friendly purses for the past 20 years. Artisans are free to employ their creative vision when producing the bags, so each item is unique and meticulously crafted, and of course, pleasing to look at and functional in form. As such, Uca Ruffatti's innovative product line has attracted attention in the United States and Europe, and owner Maria de los Angeles de Ruffatti plans to extend her modest workshop, which means even more artisans will have the opportunity for employment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eIn March 2009, One World Projects was recognized by the Fair Trade Federation on behalf of their collaboration with Uca Ruffatti.
