I’m not super “crafty” but I couldn’t resist these  fruit bags. Be hip and styl­ish next time you’re shop­ping at the farm­ers mar­ket. They’re made from old shirts or the ones you acci­den­tally shrunk. They’re so cool look­ing, prac­ti­cal and envi­ron­men­tally respon­si­ble. You can make them in all dif­fer­ent shapes and sizes. The sewing required is very begin­ner basic. Then you just snip, snip away…Here is the link for the step by step instruc­tions: Delia Cre­ates

Other Uses:

- store unused dia­pers by hang­ing the bag off a chang­ing table

–if you have an old x-large t-shirt, a laun­dry bag

–gym shoes

–beach san­dals and toys (big­ger toys that won’t fall through the holes!)

–host­ess gift (fill bag with fresh pro­duce from the farm­ers mar­ket or your garden)

p.s. (guys) If this is all for­eign to you, share it with your wife or mom, they’ll like it!

    Put a con­trast­ing t-shirt in as a lin­ing. Make the lin­ing the same way you made the bag with­out the holes. That way you can’t see or loose what is inside the bag! I used a ribbed tank in bright yel­low to con­trast my crazy green bag.

    Such a cute idea and very easy to do. With a rotary cut­ter it takes about 10 min­utes. I think I will be mak­ing lots of these.
