Upcycled gift bag


This little bag originally had the words 'Hand Baked Biscuits' printed on it. Well in fact it still does, but you can't see those words any more because I sewed on a length of pretty fabric! I added the button just as a design feature. And now it's a lovely gift bag.

Maybe I should do 'before and after' photos when I share my crafting projects here? What do you think?

Meanwhile, I've added another beaded bookmark to the Crafty Green Poet Etsy shop.

As ever, red text contains hyperlinks that take you to other webpages where you can find out more.

Well..a perfect balance, for me of Celtic and Japanese memory patterns.
