Rainbow Basket

  • Completed Project: Rainbow Basket Picture #1

Plastic bags >> plastic basket

1. Wanting to craft something with the environment in mind, like recycling and upcycling.
2. I own a basket made of straw of which i thought: that can't be hard to figure out...
3. A growing bulk of plastic bags in my kitchen drawer

1+2+3= 7 plastic bags upcycled to be a basket!

I'm thinking of making a how-to with the second basket i'm making.... anyone interested?

I started the bottom like the how-to below...
