Sew a Tote from a Tank Top
With the new year in it’s first few days, you might be cleaning out some closets. If you happen to have some tank tops that you don’t love anymore, I’ve got a simple sewing project that will repurpose tank tops into tote bags! I had three that I removed from my closet awhile ago and I turned them into these:
Here’s the tutorial from CraftyNest.com.
Has anyone else done this already? Have you turned any other clothing into something useful? I have a slight obsession with tote bags. I think I need to cull some of my other not-so-cute totes and donate them…

I’m a bit crazy about tote bags as well. Those would be a fun addition to my collection.

I love this idea. Definitely going to try it.
