I have always loved the look of macrame shopping bags. These macrame bags are not only cute but cut down on those single-use plastic sleeves we slide our veggies and fruits into at the grocery store. Just make sure you hide the junk food in a fabric tote right! But seriously, anything which helps me remember to take my reusable bags to the supermarket is a win!
Whether you’re treating yourself or looking for a gift for a friend or loved one, these macrame market bags are perfect for any occasion. They’re a great way to show off your love for all things natural, sustainable, and handmade. DIY to your heart’s content, or purchase a ready-made one if you don’t have the time!
