This weekend there was a bit of a find over at the Ballard Design outlet store. You don't think these bags started out this way do you?
Of course you don't. You know better. Imagine racks and racks of these... Monogrammed jute tote bags.
Of course that only works if you know someone with the right initials. Well I knew I could get around that. Using pieces of a vintage crochet blanket I was able to make these fun Junque Totes. I'm getting them ready for show season. They will be perfect for Junkin' in Style. A sweet and useful bag for hauling your treasures as you shop.
Four down. Six more left. Oodles of ruffles. Should I go back and get more?

I love this idea too!!! I'd go back and get the rest! ha ha!!
Take care, Kathy
How cute are they!
How cute. I would never thought to cover the initial. Go back and grab the rest of them.
So clever. You know, I don't think I'll ever look at a plain ol' monogrammed bag the same way again! Thanks for sharing your fabulous idea. Victoria
i think they are adorable. Very creative!~Ames
What a very cute idea! The bags are great and then covering the monogram is brilliant. I think you will sell them with no problem. Thanks for joining JFF!!
What a fabulous idea. I often pass up good buys because they have a monogram that doesn't fit! I'll remember this redo the next time I run across a monogramed item! Would work for Towels and wearables like shirts etc. Love It!
You are so clever. I can't tell you how many bags I have passed up because of the monograms, (kicking myself as I type)
Your turned out really cute!
Thanks for sharing, Annette
I sure hope you went back and got more, that is just a fabulous repurpose of those bags. I'd buy it in a heartbeat!
These bags are pretty!!
Way cute! You could do so much with these!!! I would go nuts after a while!!!

Love them! I just bought 10 canvas bags at hobby lobby to decorate a couple of weeks ago. This is an inspiration! So happy I found your blog.
