$2 "cotton on" bag upcycle

 I have one of those minds that struggles to stop thinking about little projects or something I'd like to try...so lately whenever I've been near a cotton on/kids/typo shop etc I've been on the look out for their $2 cotton bags that they use for their packaging/charity bags... 

~ and so using one of these this is my version of a simple banner ~

unpick or just cut the sides out and then cut whatever pattern you would like out of the bottom....  For mine I cut the triangle to mirror the shape of the arrows... 

this particular pattern didn't leave much room up the top for where I folded it over and straight stitched the top...

If I had been able to choose the height I would have preferred more space above the design too but sometimes you just have to go with it...

I also have made two different types of cushion covers using the bags too so hopefully I can put them up here too

Now you'll have to keep your eye out for those bags to eh there must be so many ways to use them!! so get dreaming and designing!
