I don’t know about you but I feel so guilty about throwing Christmas wrapping paper away. Well, Becky posted this great idea and tutorial for recycling the wrapping paper into a woven basket. Check out her tutorial for weaving a recycled wrapping paper basket at her blog My Kids Make. Thanks for sending in this great project that keeps another thing out of the landfill for just a while longer!

Rustic Town Canvas Leather Tote Bag
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.
glad you liked our project!
This is an awesome idea! I have so much used wrapping paper and I don’t want to keep it and clutter up the house, but I really can’t bring myself to get rid of it either.
