In honor of Earth Month (and because I’m on the road today & don’t have a lot of time) I’m reposting this great and easy craft. If you have actually made these bags, please leave a comment and let us know. I’d also love to include some pictures!!!

Well what do you know? Martha Stewart actually has an easy, frugal idea for making your own re-useable shopping bag from old T-shirts. I know I have plenty of old T-shirts that I’ve collected from who knows where piled up in my closet-it would be simplicity itself to whip up some of these:

    What a great way to save an old tee! And so much easier and useful than making a quilt from them. Thanks for the link.
