Alternative to plastic produce bags
Just a quick post to share what I have come up with as an alternative to using plastic when purchasing produce. I purchased a square of green netting from the Joann's 70% off bin and made up several rectangle shaped bags. I sewed all seams with a zig zag stitch. I turned over the top to make a casing and then threaded some kite string through for the top closure. They are super light weight and durable. I went to the Farmer's market last Saturday and came home without any plastic bags!

Love em!
ReplyDeleteI am always so impressed with your creativity, Denise. Perhaps you could sell these for those who are going GREEN, but are less sewing inclined than you. I will be making these with my grandchildren as Christmas presents for their relatives. Shh, it's a Surprise!
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you contact one of those craft books for children and get it in print! Judi
