Let's go a bit frugal this time by transforming an old Man's shirt into a lovely tote bag. If you have a Man's shirt laying around in your closet, that you can't even donate that anymore. Like this one that I got here, this is belong to my husband, although the fabric is still looking great, but the collar and cuffs are starting to wear out (in this case I wouldn't even bother to donate this)

So,  I decided to extract some strips out of this shirt, add a little bit of white accent fabric, and voila!!
