When we were visiting College Girl last weekend for her big runway show, we took a Target run and I spotted this straw tote bag on the shelves.
I snapped a quick pic with my Iphone, thinking it looked a bit like one I made last summer.
{DIY} Summer Tote Bag
Pin It
Voila! Now, mine doesn't have pleather handles and the pom poms are slightly different than the Target tote but it comes pretty darn close. The Target tote sells for $34.99 and I DIY'd a straw tote from Ikea that was only $3.99.
So if you want a fun, summer tote and don't want to spend a lot of cash, you can decorate your very own with a little acrylic paint and yarn. Sweet!
Let's keep in touch!

Hi Heather,
That is so awesome that you made that bag last summer and I remember featuring it at our blog party! It looks just as good as the one from Target and cheaper.
Enjoy today and the week and Happy Easter!
Hugs, Julie xo
So cute! So ready for spring!
I always say each year I need one of these bag, lovely :)
Adorable! I loved lat Summers tote - more than Targets! I see these in my future as soon as my Easter egg haze disappears! These holidays are fast this year!
I remember you making that tote Heather! So adorable! I need your energy my friend. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
Happy Easter to you and your sweet family.

Thanks for sharing this Heather at our Monday Cooking and Crafting with J & J!
You are much more of a jet setter than me, you very much need a tote that size.
SO cute! :)
