Last week I showed you how I made 10 upcycled fabric gift bags for $1 from a repurposed thrifted table cloth. Today I want to show you what I made with the bed skirt that I found on the same day I found the tablecloth.
I found this white bed skirt at the thrift store when I found the red table cloth that I used to make upcycled gift bags. The bed skirt was only $1 and has a pretty cut-out edge that I thought would be a nice accent on a fabric gift bag.
I measured the circumference of a box I got at Costco.
I measured and cut the fabric and then sewed the bag using the directions I shared last week. It took me less than 10 minutes to make the gift bag.
Instead of attaching ribbon to close the top of the bag, I used a rubber band to gather the top of the bag and form a rosette.
Voila!
A lovely upcycled fabric gift bag for a dollar. And I still have 3 more edges of the bed skirt to upcycle and feature that cut-out edge in more gift bags ( I have a couple of ideas that I’ll be showing you soon).

I’m all for something frugal. This is beautiful. Thanks for linking to the In and Out of the Kitchen Link Party. Hope to see you next week.
