january, that is.
you see, while i have been back here at my parents', there has been something on my mind about my apartment back in chicago. (besides my roomie, of course!) you would think it might be something sensible... worries over the bills, or figuring out a way to solve the problem of my cupboards getting so warm when we use the microwave, or something like that.
but no.
i just can't stop thinking of what to do with all the plastic bags we have collected.
it's not even a 'green' issue. i just keep thinking that there are endless possibilities for crafting, and it's hard to decide what to go with...
should i make a rug? a purse? 'yarn'? a kite? endless numbers of little men with parachutes? a sculpture?
but today, i think i have found an answer, via MAKEzine.com:
this video is awesome. even if i don't go the route of making a messenger bag, i will be using this chick's plastic-making trick asap. and look how awesome those black garbage bags look!!! possibilities fill my brain: rain hats...shoe covers... plastic covered notebooks(!)
i am so pumped.
