| Picnic Tote or Lunch Tote made from jeans: front |
This darling little jean tote is roomy enough for packing a small picnic and practical for carrying lunch to work or to school.
 |
| Pocket Detail |
Don't you just love how that front pocket is perfect for your napkin and utensils?!
With the weather cooling down and Back-to-School on our minds, it's the perfect time to share this Upcycled Jean Lunch Tote with you.

| Vintage Images |
The vintage images are so sweet. I used inkjet printable fabric, which I've referred to when making aprons, pillows, ornaments, and napkins.

| Belt Handle Detail |
I shared the basics for making this jean lunch tote more than a year ago when I had less than 25 followers. I was just a baby blogger!
 |
| Insulated liner & gathered top for roominess |
Since making this lunch tote, I use it almost daily to carry my lunch to work.
 |
| Adorable. Portable. Yummy. |
But we've also carried picnics-for-two in it! Guess what we took with us most recently?
No telling where our picnic road trip adventures will take us! There are so many places I want to show you while the weather is cool and the sky is so blue...
Keep riding along with me. We'll picnic this season at Fun Fall Field Trip sites and come up with some fantastic Fall projects in future posts.
When you get back home, if you want the basics for making this Upcycled Jean Lunch Tote with a Belt Handle, you can find it parked right here: Part 1 and Part 2. Having written many tutorials since then, I realize those first few were not thorough. :)

Is that your truck? IS THAT YOUR TRUCK? I want that truck. Flowers and all. You're tote's nice too, and when I replenish the peach supply I'm making the crisp, but that truck, I need it for pictures.

Ha-ha! Not my truck. One can dream though, right? It is a display for a plant farm we saw on a 'field trip.' Super cool, hu?!!!
Fun lunch tote! Love the old pickup truck!

I just love your photos! They are fun! I am wanting to try this inkjet fabric to do something like this. i love the Graphics Fairy and would love to try some of her pictures on a t shirt. But I heard you can't wash the fabric.
