I too am probably the only one to still hang clothes out on the line. I was thinking you could use it for small rolls of stabiliizer in the sewing room. Pampers for babies what about 'depends' for seniors! lol

A friend of mine gave me one and I use it to keep extra money in and hang it in the closet between your clothes, no one would think of looking for money there.

They are adorable.

They would look really cute holding blocks or crayons, or even little girls brushes and bows etc. Even any of the small toys that little girls collect like Disney Princesses, Hatchamals.

Or what about in the car. For all the little kiddo's small toys. My daughter has 3 children. 2 of those would be great to hold my granddaughters small toys and what not. Their brother is 6 so they sit at a lot of football and baseball games. So, would make it handy to grab one of those small bags to keep them occupied on a blanket.

I made these for my grands. But, they would probably sell great. http://tonicoward.blogspot.com/2010/...-tutorial.html They use them for toting their toys around.

There is only 1 finished in the photo. The one with the draw string. Must have forgotten to take any of the finished bags. lol

Wouldn't they be great at a baby shower filled with little things they need.

I see, you just need to lead people into the right direction on other uses.

Good luck, I hope they sell. You have a lot more money and time tied into these to sell for $5.

So many uses, so little space to share. :)

I would hang it in the pantry use it for plastic bags. Hang it in my sewing room for a scrap bag as I cut. Hang it in my office to throw in all the charger cables for my devices, I can never find them! Many gated neighborhoods, 55 plus and newer communities all have HOA's and rules that do not allow clotheslines.

Love the idea of putting in charging cords. I didn't think of that. But, I have a perfect spot to hang one in my laundry room (off the kitchen) with the extra cords.

Adorable clothes pin holders. You did a beautiful job on sewing them. I like the idea of having them hold plastic bags from grocery store -or- I like the idea of holding candy!! when you want a treat and not let all the kiddos know you are snacking. LOL. Hope you sell all of them and make good money for the boutique.
