Years ago I made a bunch of ditty bags with tropical flower fabric, sewn in a simple rectangle but with double fabric, design inside and out. Top of the bag just a folded over seam with openings at one end, bought shoelaces for ties. Had many uses.

I have a few yards of really nice feed sack type material that I’ve been saving and was thinking of making produce bags for the fridge out of it.

You know, maybe I WILL do a post about sewing things and using them versus plastic in the home? Help me do some research, OK?

I’ve been recycling plastic containers and switching over to glass for home storage; I need to do more with Mason Jars for storage, for sure. Another uber-useful item!

I’ve seen some blogs where people have zero waste and zero plastic in their lives. I’d LOVE to go back to glass milk jugs, for sure! Beau drinks a LOT of milk - there needs to be a better way. We are drowning in plastic. :(
