Creative DIY Projects That Turn Trash Into Treasure
Hair accessories are all over the place and the clever crafter of the blog Jenny’s Thrifty Thoughts posted a very (and I do mean very) thorough tutorial on how to make this cute bow-tie hair clip from a scrap of fabric. I have a few dresses that I have hemmed shorter and this would be a great project to make a coordinating accessory with those few inches of fabric cut from the hem.

I absolutely love this bag! I was looking for something that felt a bit more unique than your average tote—and this one totally delivers. The mix of canvas and leather gives it a rustic, well-traveled vibe that I’m obsessed with. It looks like something you’d pick up in a boutique or a vintage market, but it’s surprisingly affordable.
The quality really impressed me—thick material, strong stitching, and the leather straps feel like they’ll last forever. I’ve been using it as my everyday carry-all for errands and casual outings, and it fits everything without losing its shape. It even looks better the more I use it.
Also, I appreciate that it has a bit of a story—it feels like a bag that was made with care, not just churned out in a factory. I’ve gotten so many compliments, and people are always surprised it came from Amazon!
If you’re into that rugged, effortless style and want something durable with charm, this tote is 100% worth it. Check it out here on Amazon.
