RRP $21.99

Use plastic bottles, t-shirts and bubble wrap to create jewelry that is sure to make heads turn for all the right reasons.
This book would also make a fantastic gift for teenagers or anyone else who is getting started in jewelry making.
If you are like me you want an easy way to carry your towel and a few items to the beach but don’t want a bag just to hold those things.
So I came up with the idea to make a beach towel bag. This way it is a bag that can hold a few items but also function as your towel. I love it! I share with you how you can make your own beach towel bag.
This is an easy sewing project that is perfect for summer! I even made a few for my kids so they each have their own. Start sewing this fun bag today.
