If you’re anything like me, you accumulated about a million reusable grocery bags last year. One of my favorite finds was this little gem: a Shop and Go Tote from Willow House. This stylish blue and green shopping bag can be used for much more than just shopping.

Here’s a list of new uses for this reusable tote bag (and others of its kind) straight from the Willow House website. Some of my favorites:

Tip #6: Store your hammock in a bag between uses.

Tip #8: Create a Pedicure Tote: Pack flip-flops, nail color, your own clean utensils and a magazine for the salon.

Tip #12: Package your gift in a reusable tote instead of an expensive and disposable gift bag — tie the handles together with a coordinating ribbon to make it extra special.

Tip #18: Use as library bags — give one to each family member and let them fill ’em up!

Tip #20: Use as beach bags.

Tip #36: Carry produce home from the farmer’s market.

Tip #37: Ramble in the woods and bring home pretty pinecones and branches for decorating.

And, of course, the list goes on. How about taking a look and sharing some of your favorites? I even came up with this one on my own:

Use as a doggie suitcase for Charley, complete with rawhide chews, treats, toys and food bowls.
