I recycled a shirt I did not like into a tote bag, I left the pockets ,added new buttons . Cut off the sleeves and trimmed around the edge. My attempt at recycling

makes a great tote bag! I haven't seen them made from shirts before that weren't tshirts. This is much better I think.

Such a fun tote bag you made& good idea you had with the shirt as it had pockets for cell phones or ipod. Thanks for sharing your recyle project& God's blessings.:~D

Great tote. The heavier material will make it more durable as a tote. I love the buttons down the front. Soooo Cute.

How cute! This would be a great idea for a favorite blouse that no longer fits but you can't bear to get rid of.

Good for you for going green. Don't forget to use the sleeves for shoe sacks for traveling or for making a wine gift bag.

Thanks, the shirt was a heavy material and i always thought it looked like an awning. Another one is in the works. A good way to clean out the closets.
