In my drawers, part 4

I Just felt an urge to step on H&M, so I made a rug from all MY bags. The process really made me thing about how much I consume and if I really need it. Now some years have passed and I think I shop less...

Have a great weekend!

Check out these fun sweded videos made at school last week (I wasn´t part of this project!) 1a, 1b, 2a and 2b.

I think I´ve got to try that plastic crochet...I know what you mean...we have SO much now a days...and really don´t need half of it to survive...I reuse my shoppingbags...so I don´t have to buy new ones...:)

Wow, you are so resourceful! This talent of yours would come in handy if you were stranded on a deserted island. You could do this with the occasional bags that would wash up and make nets to catch the minnows which in turn would catch the big fish, perfect!
(It is also pretty)

Kimberley: You are just full of ideas, if I get stranded I do hope I get stranded with you!
I Can imagine that there are more plasticbags in the ocean then actual fish, seeing the reports from placec around the world where all the gathered plastic looks like new countries in the middle of nowhere. Scary!

Det där ser ju spännade ut, hur går det till? Vanlig virkning med plastpåseremsor eller? Det blir man ju sugen på att prova...
