Upcycled Denim Hanging Baskets

"I use these denim storage baskets in my craft room they are so handy for bits and pieces or small craft projects on the go. The embroidery hoop not only makes the baskets easy to get into but they also make it easy to hang them. All you need is the leg of an old pair of jeans and some contrasting fabric for the liner. This is a very easy sewing project that can be completed either by hand or machine."
