3 Reusable grocery bag
Requirements:
- Old t-shirt
- Scissors
- Ruler
- Fabric marker
Method:
- Cut off the sleeves of the shirt. Ensure, you cut along the seams. When you cut along the neck, ensure the cut is big, like a scoop, as this will serve as the opening of the bag.
- Mark 1inch long vertical strips along the bottom of the t-shirt. Draw the same on the back as well. Now cut along the lines to form small strips of the fabric.
- Turn the shirt inside out, tie one strip from the back to one in the front, continue doing this with all the strips.
- To secure the bottom further, take each double strip and tie it to the next strip in a double knot.
- Now, flip the t-shirt back, since it was inside out, the bag is ready. Add strips cut from the rejected parts to form a sling that can be used to carry the bag around on your shoulder.
