Tutorial: 10-minute grocery bag holder

Plastic grocery sacks multiply like rabbits! At least around my house they do. Rather than just sending them to the landfill, I hold on to them to get at least one more use out of them before they’re trash. Grocery bag holders like this one can keep your stash of plastic bags from getting out of hand. You can put the bags in the top, and then pull them out from the bottom when you need them. They’re super fast and easy to make. Maggie from Smashed Peas and Carrots shows how you can make one in just 10 minutes.
