Summer is the season of camp. If your kids are headed off to sleep-away camp in the next couple of months, then you probably have a long list of things they need to pack, with a bunch of little things rolling all over the place. Fretting over a way to keep the cutlery, plate, bowl and cup together? Want to keep the bathing suit, goggles and sun screen together?
Lucky for you, Naturally Savvy has a five-minute DIY project that is sure to keep at least a few things organized—and all you need is a shoestring and a tea towel. Added bonus: The tea towel will wick away excess moisture and keep bugs out.
1. Make a pocket
Fold one of the long edges over about one-half to three-quarters of an inch and stitch along the edge to create a pocket.

2. Fold and Sew
Fold the tea towel in half, making sure the pocket is at the top. Sew along the bottom and side seam.

3. String It All Together
Thread the shoestring through the pocket and you're all done! If you want to keep the shoestring from coming out, be sure to tie a knot in the end. Then just stuff it full.
