Cargo Bags and Burlap Book Bags

Use the fishnet hanging cargo bag to display Book Fair favorites. First insert a filler for shaping, then surround with books for all to see. Run rope through each corner of netting, pull together, and hang from the ceiling.

Burlap book bags add a jaunty touch to the pier. These bags require about six yards of burlap. Cut burlap into six pillowcase sized pieces, staple seams, turn right-side out, label with popular reading genres — MYSTERY, FANTASY, ASVENTURE — and plump up with your handiest filler. Gather and tie the top with rope or brown raffia.
