Fabric from Fused Plastic Bags

A while back, Etsy Labs posted a tutorial on how to create a durable plastic fabric by fusing plastic bags together. Three of my favorite blogs wrote about the process too, CRAFTzine, Whip-up, and Treehugger. Treehugger has posted a new article about the fusing experiments that Betz White is doing. Her experiments have resulted in the cutest bags!

I love that these bags are recycled and eliminate the need for using new bags from the store every time. In reality, I may never make one though because there are so many great, affordable options on the market. I would rather spend my limited crafting time making something else.
