Ever thought that $5 is to much to pay for a reusable bag at the supermarket? Well here is a way to make strong, good looking, easy to make, and best of all there practically free bags.

Step 1: Gather Your "bags"

I find that old flour or bean bags are good for this project. If you don't like the logo on them you can always just flip them inside out. So not only are we making reusable bags were also making bags from post consumer products.

Step 2: Cutting the Bags

Some of the bags are too deep so I cut off the top 1/3 of the bag. Next you'll need to cut the 1/3 of the bag down the seam and then cut it length wise, I'll show you why later.

Step 3: Sewing

Fold the strips in half and sew them so they stay that way. Next sew the edges of the bag inward so that it creates a flat edge ( be carful not to sew the bag shut ).

Step 4: Completing the Bag

Sew on the two handles so that you can easily carry the bag. Congratulations you're done.
