Insulated Grocery Tote Tutorial

How cool is this tote!!! (Did you catch the play on words?) The Insulated Grocery Tote is perfect for those items that need to stay cool without having to carry around a cooler with you...and it's so much prettier too!

Reanna Lily Designs has a great tutorial that uses an auto shade as the insulator...now that's really a smart idea!!! For the instructions and wonderful pictures, click on the photo above. This easy tutorial will work up so fast that you'll want to make a few of them and with everyone going green, your friends are going to want a few too :-)

Thanks for stopping by today!

Tuesday Tutorials - Insulated Bags

Getting your groceries home and keeping things cold in the summer months can be quite a challenge. Carrying a cooler in your vehicle can be quite cumbersome too so.... to help us all, I'm sharing some insulated cooler bags you can make yourself.

The instructions for this first one can be found at sewmamasew.com I love how big this one is too.

This one is a little different, and is to be used mainly as a lunch bag, but I can see where it would work for transporting smaller things or even made larger. Instructions can be found at jembellish.blogspot.com

Here's another nice big bag, instructions can be found at... sew4home.com The outside pockets are nice!

Here's to keeping our foods cool and at safe temperatures this summer.

Thanks for joining us!
