BAG WEEK – Wrap Up

April 4, 2006

Thanks to everyone for all the kind comments and email. GreatGreenGoods will resume posting about this, that, and the other thing, tomorrow. We had a lot of fun during BAG WEEK, and we’ll definitely do it again!! .. but want to mention the greenest bag you can use is the one you already have. Even though we are a shopping blog, we need to remember that living a Green Life is really about buying stuff you love, and using it until you wear it out.
With that said, the second best option is to use recycled materials. Thanks to Nicola from Acorn Studios who pointed out a cool tutorial to make a bag out of recycled seat belts.
Check out this link to instructions to make your own bag out of recycled album covers.
And the bag pictured above has detailedinstructions to “knit” a carryall from your recycled plastic bags.
