Recycle your plastic shopping bags into a new one!

I have seen these plastic bags made out of plastic bags in the stores, and I figured I could figure out how to make my own! Here are the resources I used to create my bags- For the bag though, I obviously changed some things. I mainly used those instructions to get it started. Obviously I have 2 straps and no closing flap, I just figured out how to do that on my own. Also my bags are different sizes. The brown bag follows the instructions, but with the white I kept making my base bigger until it was the size I wanted. The number of bags you will need totally depends on the size of your finished product. I didn't keep very good track of how many I used for each... at least 25 but probably more! (I'm bad at estimating that stuff lol)
