Hi: I sincerely apologize for the extremely frivolous nature of this topic!!

I purchased a 21" ateco piping bag that is cloth outside and plastic inside a few years back, on recommendation from a store clerk when I was learning to make french macarons.  It's worked well, but way way too big for pretty much everything I've tried to pipe.  I can easily buy a smaller bag (or use ziplocks of course), they are inexpensive at $4-8, and then either keep the 21" or throw it out. But... can I just cut the top down to make it smaller?  I'll lose the logo and stamped button hole for hanging, but who cares?

I just don't like waste, rather reuse what I have...  feels real stupid to post this sorry and not sure why this is so agonizing haha 😐😧

Yes you can - I do it all the time with disposable ones!
