Old pants reborn!

[roostery]

All of my 10 year old linen pants are wearing out and I am soooo sad about it. I loved my Flax floods. BUT.....I cut them up and made the pant legs into produce and bulk foods bags! I got six bags (4 large, 2 tiny) out of my favorite pair of tobacco colored pants.

Im sad to see the pants go, but happy to get some re-usable produce bags.

Can I send mine your way to be re-vamped?

Oooh what a good idea!! I keep meaning to buy bags like that, but now I'm wondering if I have anything around here I could use to make my own.

What a great idea. I just popped in to this forum for the first time and I am just loving it! I love when our creativity can be functional and frugal.
