Don’t these shopping bags look great? It’s all in the details. Did you notice the frames? The key to success is going with a simple frame style and one colour. The rest will take care of itself. For step-by-step instructions to DIY, check out Jesse’s post from Just Flew the Coop here.

So when you’re out ‘back to school shopping’, and bring home some fabulous shopping bags, remember you’re really getting two-for-one… the items you purchased and some great bags that you can turn into fun, colourful pieces of art! What better way to maximize each purchase!

  1. Those look really fabulous! I don’t think my Target bags in frames would have quite the same panache . . .

  2. I love when you find things I haven’t seen yet! It’s so cool!

    I like the idea, but I’m not sure if i’d have it at home. It a bit “look what I buy, look what I wear”… too consumerist for me. But I appreciate the creativity on this.

    Have a great day.

  3. love the idea

  4. This is a girl’s version of a trophy wall! I recently parted with some special shopping bags that held memories of favorite holidays. Now I’m sorry I did! I would carry it a little further and insert some pertinent photos into the frames as well, to personalize them.

    However, I also agree with Luciane’s comment that I don’t want to put too much emphasis on consumerism. I can see myself displaying a few for fun in my walk-in closet. Hmmmmm

  5. Love those framed bags, but like commentator #1, Superstore bags just lack that style :) Maybe I just need to start shopping more high-end, hubby would like that ;)

  6. I totally borrowed that brilliant idea a while ago … but only in my closet! It’s just so cute — and more than what you bought, it brings back memories. Like shopping in Bergdorf’s with a friend, etc … After all, you could just buy a lipstick or key chain at some of the stores!

    I love this idea. I have a friend who collects high end bags and I will pass this along to her…love the white frames too.

    People are so creative! Do you think my Home Goods and JC Penney bags would work? :)
