Beginners' Guide to Plastic Bag Recycling - How to Make a Wallet

💚 A huge thank you to The Brotherhood:   / brothersmake   ♻️ Check out our recycled plastic store: https://www.brothersmake.com/shop Up until now, we've mostly worked with waste plastic bottle tops for our creations. We wanted to find a way to use other forms of plastic pollution, such as the dreaded plastic carrier bag. These things are a nightmare for the planet - they never break down and animals mistake them for food. We've all seen the images of the hungry turtle mistaking a plastic bag for a jellyfish. In this video, we show you how you can take plastic bags and turn them into a tough flexible fabric-like sheet. The beauty of this is that you don't need any specialist tools in order to do this. Check out the technique and give it a go for yourself. We'd love to hear what you have made, or what you'd like to see us make using this technique. We found a few excellent reference videos that helped us start out with this process.
