I love the Bloggy Giveaways. It gives me a chance to meet new people and it also introduces new readers to Thrifty Mommy. Some folks don’t know we’re around here trying to save money and this helps get the word out. Welcome everyone! We’re glad you’re here! 
The second giveaway comes from Cindy of My Recycled Bags. Cindy has given her time to create a unique bag just for Thrifty Mommy. This bag is made from recycled plastic bags. How cool is that?
My Recycled Bags is a blog dedicated to recycling and crafting. Cindy crochets and sews using a variety of recycled materials. Her creations include the use of plastic grocery bags, bread bags, Vcr video tape, cassette tape, denim, bed sheets, rags, and other materials. She offers patterns for totes, purses, handbags, water bottle holders, bibs, wheelchair totes, clothes pin bag, rugs, dishcloths, potholders, coasters, doll clothes, and other re-purposed items. All patterns are free for personal use and posted at her blog. Cindy loves to share and inspire others in the art of green crafting. So take a moment and stop by Cindy’s blog to learn more about the wonderful world of green, recycled crafts.

oh my, this is absolutly precious!
i have recently started to ‘go green’ my self. I have learned to make home made all natural soaps for dishes and laundry already…. bath soap is harder to create though.
i would love this!
I added My Recycled Bags to my bookmarks. I love recyling and upcycling things. My latest obsession is making purses out of old t-shirts.
I have no idea how that fanastic purse was made from grocery bags. AWESOME!!! What a great site, it’s great to see people going green!
Bless your heart Cindy! So glad everything turned out okay for you! I know how scary it can be. I myself am going through chemo now, and it is certainly a journey. I have so many people in my support team, I am so blessed. Godspeed, love! Your Messenger Bag is amazing! Sheer genious! Thank you for shareing!

Okay, way thoughtful, way cute!! I want to go to the site to show the patterns for stuff like this. I’d love to win this little number. I’ve got a lot of stuff around my house I can afford to recycle. It’ll help clean up the house too:)
Instead of taking a bag, take this cart shopping.
