Tote-ally Me!

My new job requires me to split time between 2 offices. I have been using an extremely professional Target reusable shopping bag to haul files and other stuff to and fro. I knew I needed to remedy that and wanted to try this recent Woman's Day featured craft out as a trial Christmas gift. This monogrammed tote cost me about $8 to make, took less than an hour actual craft time and turned out so cute!

I could tell you all about how I did it, but the smart chick that came up with it already has a great little online tutorial, so be sure to stop over and visit Ashley at Under the Sycamore for all of the specifics. She gives some great gift ideas, like stocking the tote with cooking supplies for your favorite cook, school supplies for a teacher, gardening stuff for the gardener, and on and on..
