Homemade Gifts

Let's take a vote. Do we like this bag:

"Properly" put together, with the lining completely hidden?

Or do we like the blue lining sticking out, looking all sassy?

In case you're wondering if there's food hidden in the bag, no. Sometimes I like to take a break from cooking.

Sunglasses need to be pampered too, you know.

Also, I've decided the best use for the bag is as a place to keep a spare pair of shoes at work. It's cute enough that you can stash it under your desk or in a drawer without people thinking "Ew, gross, shoes" or "Why does she have plastic bags under her desk all the time?"

Looks like it could be a wine gift bag.

I thought of the wine bag idea too, but wanted the bag to be more functional.

The bag is actually huge; I used a dinner plate as the template for the bottom, and it's over a foot tall.

You know what it would be really cute for? Keeping a spare pair of shoes under a desk at work.

What?! No food? Ugh.

Definitely like the one w/ the lining sticking out. Cute contrast. - T.

I prefer the one without the lining - C

You know I love that color, but I really think it's cuter with the lining hidden.
