My tee shirt upcycle

There are many t shirt upcycle ideas out there.  I took the idea and apply the way I make pillowcase dresses, and really like he result!

My picnic basket upcycle

I found this picnic basket at a garage sale for $3.  I loved it, and grabbed it up to bring to Friday free summer concerts in the park.  It needed something, however:

I brought it home, found some scrap bandana looking fabric, som thin batting, and with some hot glue, pinking shears for cutting the edges to prevent fraying, I ended up with this:

I turned the basket upside down to cut my template.  I also taped it in place prior to gluing, then removed tape as I glued.  I think it turned out really cute!
