I saw a bag this weekend that a lady made out of a cat food bag...
Can you imagine..how cool.....now I have an empty dog food bag and want to make one...they are great for shopping bags..she simply made a canvas liner for hers and added webbed handles...
anyone else make a shopping bag like this? any tutes out there!
Not sure what thread, needle, etc to use on this project!

Guess that is a good way to recycle huh? Good luck on your project..would love to see a photo of your finished bag...
my DH uses ours to put the wood chip scraps in then takes them to the burn pile.

I have also seen one made with coffee bags and duct tape.

I re-use my dog food bags every single week. I just collect the "used" food in the back yard and put it right back in the bag for the trash.
I wonder if I can bring them back to Pet-Smart for a refund?

This is so funny. I just emptied my cat food bag and noticed it was not paper this time, but woven plastic. I washed it out, put it outside to dry. And came to the board to see if there was any tutes on making a bag. :)
