The Last Shopping Bag

The Last Shopping Bag
Originally uploaded by 365 Things

What: The last shopping bag in my apartment. (See confession.)
Origin: Addiction to beautiful paper products.  Desire to tote stuff around.
How long kept/Usage: Uh, 4-5 months? And not at all.
Why Kept: It Might Be Useful. (See confession.)
Destination: Housing Works, containing a few items...

Confession: There are a couple of gift bags remaining in a separate stash, but they seem like they shouldn't count as shopping bags. And one very pretty bag from the MOMA Matisse exhibition in the 90s (?) that seems to require a more respectful dispensation.

And I confess that the beautiful folds, combined with design elements, made me think of hacking this bag up and making it into a birthday card for someone in my life named "Kate". Good Crafting Intentions Gone Bad. Almost.
