Recycled item challenge..-Recycled Organiser Bag

Here's what Andrea had to say about her tutorial: Barb at I Wanna New Bag has set up a new challenge that some of you may be interested in taking part in. Every month or so she sets a challenge with a theme for recycling items into other products. The theme for this month is to use something a bit out of the ordinary. Not sure what that might be? Well take a look at my entry, YES! I have actually got organised ahead of schedule this time....

Recycle Wallet (Tutorial..well sort of...)- Recycled Organiser Wallet

Here's what Andrea had to say about her tutorial: For months I have been trying to meet the challenges set by I Wanna New Bag and failed miserably! Yesterday I decided to throw caution to the wind and do this.... Take one rather unwanted plastic multi-pocket organiser and cut it with a pair of scissors to make a bag and a wallet. I did not actually measure it, but I went with wherever the pockets started or finished.
