7 Uses for a handmade drawstring bag

When I first made a drawstring bag for myself, I had one use in mind: dice. I'd just started playing Dungeons and Dragons with some friends, and I collected three sets of polyhedral dice pretty quickly. I wanted something prettier and more practical to keep my dice in than the clear plastic display boxes they often come in. I decided to sell three sizes: small (good for 1-3 sets of dice), medium (good for 3-5 sets of dice), and large (great for minifigures and/or oversized dice). But when I bring the drawstring bags with me to craft fairs, and people ask "what are these for?" and I answer "dice for D&D," most people put them down. I've never sold a single drawstring bag at a craft fair! So I figured it was time I shine the spotlight on some different uses for these bags - because a drawstring bag has just about a million uses! From gift wrapping to everyday practical uses, in this blog post you're sure to find a new way to use your bag. 1.
