5. Dress Shirt to Cinch Sack by Creative Upcycling
As summer approaches, I always have that go-to tote bag for beach trips, amusement park trips, etc. Instead of buying a new bag for the summer, make your own with this awesome tutorial from Creative Upcycling! It’s a great way to upcycle old or thrifted dress shirts and it will keep you from buying a bag from big box stores. Visit Creative Upycling’s site to see their step-by-step tutorial!
6. DIY Fabric Flowers by Chic Envelopements
Aren’t these the most adorable fabric flowers ever? Not only are they adorable, but Beth at Chic Envelopements made hers from an old t-shirt! You could even use Beth’s tutorial and pair it with the Mother’s Day Brooch tutorial to make a fabric flower brooch! I’ve decided that Beth is a genius at sewing/refashioning– she shared 3 projects this month and I wish I could have featured all of them. Be sure to check out her site so you can see all of her beautiful ideas!

Wow!! What a welcome treat after a week break or so of blogging and a bit of life happening around my house. Thank you for featuring my lunch bag. I am still smiling as I am packing her lunch although there are a few grumbles of where she puts it everyday!
I am a guest on Shabby Lane Shops blog talk radio show today at 7 p.m. cst! I gave a shout out for Crafting a Green World and the top ten projects. You can visit my website and listen to today’s show and my last show where I introduced my recycled magnet project.
