I can't believe that it has been almost a month since my last post. Oh dear how the time flies. Sadly this post is not about another project that I have completed. I am still working ever so painfully slowly on Upcycling 20 T-shirts. I have one project that I do hope to have completed by the end of the week but of course no promises.
I have been meaning to post about my new plastic grocery bag purse for awhile now, a birthday present from my sister. I had been using another one of her creations that I wrote about here. But I have completely moved in to the new bag and I think there is no going back. I am just not one of those women who bothers with matching her purse to her shoes. I am also pretty hard on them (ie: I carry a lot of heavy stuff and don't like moving it from one purse to another)
There are a lot of things I like about this new bag but the best thing is how sturdy it is and the fact that the bag itself is so light weight. I have picked up a few purses in department stores and felt like they where already too heavy when the were empty (Not good for a woman who needs to put 10 pounds of.... well of course it is all very necessary stuff, in her purse.)
Anyway my new purse is part purse / part brief case and I couldn't be happier.
Oh and it kept 60 or so grocery bags out of the land fill. :)
I love the fun red lining and all the pockets.
You can find more of her purses at HFR Designs on Etsy or become a FB Fan.
And if you are wondering why I can't get more done on my own projects, here is my latest excuse.
I was working on my halloween costume.
Happy November 1st.
