One of my all time favorite blogs
Frugally Sustainable had this really great post the other day. She was talking about re-purposing old fruit bags into scrub cloths so i decided to give it a try and here is what I came up with. And it only took me a few minutes to make.

Make sure all of the tags and plastic are cut off of it. Then tie a not in one end. |

Sorry for the blurry picture. Next you turn the not inside and kinda make the top poofy. If that makes sense. Then give the untied side a twist and repeat. So you just keep re folding it until you have just enough left to make a knot. |

Add your finished not and then I just wraped the loose end around the ball again, but i guess you could just cut it off.
Note: I used this for dishes today and it was fabulous!! The only thing was that it occasionally came unwrapped on me so I just kept shoving it back together. I think you could tye it each wrap instead of twisting and it would hold together better. Let me know if you try this. I would love to see what you come up with. |
