I have these all over the house, I wasn't aware they qualified for the dark side, ooo, didn't realise I was being so daring ;)

I dare say they will attract dust... everything else in the craft room does but hey ho that’s life. I just happened to have 3 hooks that looked as if they needed something hanging from them and some nice fabric to use. Probably entirely useless but I like them.

They attract as much dust as everything else, unless you keep everything in sealed tubs :S

I've made a few of these (well, 3) and that's as close to the dark side as I'll probably get.

Two are in the caravan for glasses/phones/small change/all that small stuff that ends up all over the place, and the third was for a friend who has been spending a fair bit of time in hospital. She uses it for much the same stuff as we do.

They are surprisingly quick & easy to make.
