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

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.

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.

I saved the sleeves and extra material for something, don't know what just yet.

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.

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

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