Firstly you want to get your different coloured bags, you can get lots of different colours so go and experiment different shops, you need to cut them all into little squares. I fold mine up and cut the sides, tops and bottoms and then you can cut them into squares quickly and easily
Next you want to get your zip lock bag and stuff a towel inside it, this is so that when you iron on top of it, the heat will not melt the two sides together

Next you want to get your pieces of plastic bag and place them on the bag, layering them as you go along.
Now you want to get your greaseproof paper and put that over the plastic bags, now iron over it. You need to have the iron on the highest setting and it will only take seconds. Keep placing on the plastic and ironing over it.

Your bag is now done, I found a bag that had very small letters on it so I added my name to it :D

Great way to reuse plastic bags, I have some pretty pink SuperDrug ones that would work great!

Because you are working on the zip lock bag it takes the shape of the bag, you are basicaly only covering the bag with old plastic bag, if you are still stuck get back x

YAY! I've been wanting to try plastic bag fusing!!!!!
does the ziplock become part of the makeup bag, or is it just a mould?

Yeah, the zip lock bag becomes part of the bag as it is plastic it fuses together aswell, but you can zip it closed :D have funn

You could probably just fuse the plastic together in a sheet and sew it into whatever shape you like, too.

Yeah, you can just make a sheet fuse the sides together and cut any excess off but becasue of the zip, I do this for the make-up bags. Post your version Shivi!!
