Hello my dear blurt friends, I hope you are well, today I want to share two ideas to reuse shopping bags. It is a perfect opportunity to use our woven appliques to personalize them and give them a new life. In this case I have a craft paper bag that they gave me in a store where I bought some jewelry and I also have a shopping bag from a men's clothing store. The small bag will become a gift bag and the other will serve as a shopping bag.

To complement we knit a small white cloud.

Finally, we glue the appliqué to the craft paper bag and we already have a nice gift bag.

For the largest bag that I will use for shopping, I simply knit a mandala and glued it on the front to cover the logo of the store where it was given to me, so it is more feminine and beautiful. (The pattern of the mandala can be found on Pinterest, I did not place the step by step because the post would become too long.)
