I just made this bag last week. I don't have anymore plan to go to the beach for this summer though...

This bag can be used as shopping bag until next summer. As soon as I told so to my husband, his suspicious face appeared. "Does it sturdy enough to carry all our groceries ? "
Ok, we need to test it.
For a first try, we brought it to a local market and put inside mainly heavy-classed fruits and veg ( 1 melon, 4 grapefruits, 6 bananas and 1 big zucchini, a couple of onions ) . No problem !! Yeees!
And another best part is that this "shopping" bag coud be hooked over the hundles of ous son's stroller. I do even not have to carry it when I do some groceries with my son, which means every time I go to the market !
Now I don't know whether this "beach" bag will be used next summer for its original purposes ...
