Reusable Shopping Bags with Storage Pouch, by Crafty Staci

Why should you make your own shopping bags or totes?

Plastic bags are from the same source as all plastic: crude oil. So what is wrong with crude oil? The manufacturing process emits considerable amounts of pollution, and the product is not biodegradable. On land, plastic bags are one of the most common types of litter worldwide. As plastic bags are lightweight and float easily, this means they can travel long distances when picked up by the wind this includes landing in the ocean. Then wildlife gets tangled or ingests the bags, both in the sea and on land.

Make a difference and make your own shopping grocery bags. Have plastic bags you need to re-use? Consider making these DIY upcycled plastic bag crafts.
