Bee happy ..... recycle!

Mr Happy was going to give a pair of cargo trousers to the charity shop when I had a good idea!

I thought I would try and make a bag using them and this is the finished product.  Because the fabric is heavy cotton it is great for a bag, hard wearing and soft.



The bag is made of one leg.

It has a pocket on each side of the bag.


This pocket is from the leg of the trousers.


This pocket is from the backside :)

I used ribbon to hide where I had cut the pockets out and to help hold them onto the bag.

I decided it needed a little something else so I used some of my button stash to add
something fancy.  The handle is hessian fabric.

I am going to put this cute bag on Etsy or Folksy me thinks.

Hope you like :)

Have a delicious day!
