Hmm, maybe I should start making clear plastic fabric with all this stuff. I’ve got a shower curtain to line, after all.
Ugh.
Update: Since this is consistently my most popular post (cool!), I thought I’d specify that I didn’t make these crafts. I just put ’em into one place for you. Please note the links at the bottom of the images; they go to the origin, or at least back to where I found the crafty goodness. Ok, carry on! Please continue thinking I’m a crafting virtuoso, by all means.
Oh lordy. Someone said they were looking for items made from plastic bags. Why? How about Africa‘s war on plastic bags? Maybe they wanted to know about Craftster.org’s 2007 plastic bag challenge, inspired by Morsbags. I dunno. But I went out and found just one bit of the tons of cool fused, knitted, and sewn reused plastic bags out there, none of ’em clogging up landfills, blowing down streets, or choking wildlife anymore.
Here. You. Go.
