blog action day! reusable ikea totes

Bloggers Unite - Blog Action Day oct 15 is blog action day. a day bloggers around the web unite to put a single important issue on everyone’s mind - the environment. since i won't have internet access on monday, i'm posting this early - a simple hack to remind us to reuse and recycle. better yet, upcycle. here, marlo shows us how to add a little creative chic to scrap.

marlo says, "after hanging 6 sets of hedda curtains, my friend julie gave me all of the scrap fabric she trimmed off the bottom of each curtain. i used that material to make some reusable shopping/grocery tote bags that i call “Tote2Go!” i used a plastic grocery bag as the template to create the totes. each tote is handmade in my seattle, wa studio; fully lined and reinforced at the seams using only reclaimed, repurposed or remnant fabric. it even folds into its own pocket for portability!

you can get a tote2go from here.
