Okay, so I am unemployed and nearly broke, so I am trying really hard to keep myself amused these days. Yesterday I decided to make a little coin purse from plastic grocery bags that I fused together. I used yellow bags and hand sewed it together with black thread and sewed on a black button. This took me nearly all evening, as my sewing skills are really bad...I think I may take some sewing lessons once I go back to work....Anyways, it was a fun project and I am now using it in my purse to hold my loose change. I also made more shipping envelopes. They are working out great, but take forever to make. Just a little less plastic bags in the landfil....

I love the way you are reusing plastic bags! good for you! If you want to learn more about sewing before you go back to work -- you might check out a few beginning sewing book s at the library - good luck!
the plastic purses are great-that gives me an idea..I want to make some of those to put business cards in!
