    Smile I was so lucky

    We had several bags to go to the goodwill ( we had a major try everything on thin out day Saturday) but put of taking it straight to the Goodwill.

    So I get this idea on Sunday to make reusable bag from t shirts for Christmas presents ( for grandparents and great grandparents) It will be a fun project to do with Little Miss.

    FASTEST RECYCLED T-SHIRT TOTE BAG

    So I re go though the goodwill bag to find t shirts that will work. While looking though the bags I find my only a pair of gloves.
    Sure glad I found them. Still not sure how they ended up in there.

    I was sure lucky. Free Christmas presents ( just time and a bit of thread) and finding my only gloves that I didn't know were missing.

    I have a bunch of stuff set aside from a closet cleanout a while back, but I am going to be using the material for baskets for Christmas. Money is tight for our kids, so am crocheting baskets out of the material, and filling with food type items, that they each like but may be out of their budgets enough that they won't buy for themselves at this time.

    Very cute! I just had another thought...bags from tank tops. All you would have to do is seam the bottoms.
