Rag Bag Purses
#1
A few years ago these were really popular....so, of course, I made TONS of them! Well, guess what? Now I have a lot of them leftover and noone seems to buy this style anymore. What do you do with your left-over crafts when they seem to be out of style?

The first thing I thought of was, why not embellish them with different stuff, maybe even some rick rack, beads, cool things. I love them. I dont think it would take much to "update" them at all. Good luck and keep us posted. :)

I donate my leftover crafts to charity. Churches, fund raisers for those with medical issues are esp. Appreciative and ppl loved them! I had old purses I made and embellished flip flops. Make " baskets " out of them. Went to thrift store got baskets, put, purse, flip-flops , Sunglasses Ect. Whatever around house. Sell great!!!!

I think they would make nice bags for the beach,(sun tan lotion, sun glasses, etc., or even a bag for an over nighter some place...put your brush, comb, hair spray etc. Hope this helps! I think they are really cute.
