ShoeBoxes of Love: T-Shirt Tote Bag

T-Shirt Tote Bag

Find the full instructions at http://www.instructables.com/id/FASTEST-RECYCLED-T-SHIRT-TOTE-BAG/?ALLSTEPS

This is a super simple gift idea for the shoeboxes.. easy, inexpensive, practical, and can be fun too.

The Instructables picture shows quite boring t's used as the totes but I am planning on using kids t-shirts outgrown by my kids that are still in great shape. So the bags I am making have cartoon characters, flowers, and even a cross on them. They are roomy enough that they can even be used to carry the items of the shoebox home in.

HI!!! I am Rhonda and I am a year round volunteer with Operation Christmas Child here in the Klamath Area and in case you couldn't tell yet, I LOVE OCC!

I hope that at this blog you are inspired to pack boxes, to pray, and to share the news about Operation Christmas Child with others in your life.

To God be the glory!

“How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” (Romans 10:14-15)

DROP OFF LOCATION

The Drop Off sites around the nation are now all closed.

If you already packed a shoebox you can mail it. Learn more at http://www.samaritanspurse.org/operation-christmas-child/drop-off-locations/

Or if you learned about it too late this year, or time slipped away, you can still build a shoebox online at https://www.samaritanspurse.org/operation-christmas-child/buildonline/ The boxes built online can be more expensive, especially if you are a sale shopper BUT they have all approved items and can go anywhere in the world, including areas where there are many restrictions, such as Muslim nations. So please consider this option if you still want to do a box.

And it is NEVER too early to start shopping and crafting towards next years' boxes! There are still hundreds of millions of children around the world in desperate poverty and needing the love of Jesus.
