Materials:
Plastic gallon bleach jug, cut off top where it begins to curve in toward spout.
Length of 10 inch wide fabric, cotton/poly is good
- enough to go around circumference of jug, plus seam allowance.
Twice length of sturdy cording, circumference of jug, plus a foot or so.
Procedure:
Using a paper punch, make holes around top (the cut off end) of jug spaced about 1/2 inch apart.
Fold & sew a hem on one side of the fabric - leaving a 1 inch opening
Fold a sew a narrower hem on the bottom of fabric
Sew both short ends of fabric together to make a cylinder
Using cord threaded in large size needle, attach fabric to jug. Be sure that the side with the opening is on top...you will be threading the cord through it.
Run cord through top hem so the it can be pulled shut.
Tie the cord ends in a square knot to close.
Besides recycling the plastic jug, this is an easy "craft" or gadget for the girls to make. The plastic is great on wet sink counters and protects other things in the girl's pack if something spills. If your bathrooms have hooks for towels, the ditty bag can be hung up.
