Makeup Bag and bags and bags and bags

Confession.  I'm a bit of a hoarder collector.  I cannot stand to get rid of things away because just as soon as I do I know I will need them.
Last week a girlfriend of mine was collecting items (clothes, wallets, toiletries, costume jewelry, etc) to take to a women's shelter.  She mentioned they were putting together toiletry bags and I knew I could donate mine.  See I did find a use for it, therefore justifiying my keep them for as long as I did (years in some cases).


But donating these left me without my own so I needed to make one.  I'm not one to carry all of my makeup around with me.  Just really powder & lipstick.  And when I travel that's all I wear as well.  So a small bag made from scraps was in order.







This is just the perfect size for me.  And such a great use of my leftover fabric.  I think I need to make some more of these for great stocking stuffer gifts.
