    Dear ladies,

    I happen to have a lot of cloth bags(tamboola pai), small and medium sized, with varying thickness. I don't know what to do with them. Please suggest ideas to use them. What do you guys do with them?

    Use to store junk jewellery separately
    Use to store small things like clips, pins, bands, etc
    Can pin them or glue them firmly one by one on a strong cardbord and then attach a thread or hook and hang it on wall...so that u can store and sort your daily things easily

    I had to look up what tamboola bags were :)

    Can you use them as grocery bags? One for each visit to the market.

    tamboola bags are goody bags / gift bags. Can store small things, it could be flashy / shinny satin or embroidery bags. Usually given away as gift bags at the weddings / marriage receptions to the family and friends.

    When I travel, I use them as jewellery bags. Some are fancy / good collectible items. A few, nice (small) ones, I hang at my work desk to keep stationary items.

    if they are cloth bags.. you can wash once and use it for vegetable storage. i use them for the same. from subway cover for greens to vegges in the cloth bags they absorb moisture well. cna be ised to store things like clothespin, tools, and such..

    if they are poly mixed bags you should look for recycled craft if you are interested.

    jute bags which is not common but come very handy to carry lunch box. and water bottle and things for kids.
    if they are not presentable but yet jute a friend of mine stitches a few togethet to make a floor mat. for the kitchen..

    the rest dump for recycle.
