Plarn Project - What is plarn?

Hello Friends,

I hope you are all doing well.  Today's blog post is about something I recently discovered while searching on Pinterest.  It is plarn.  What is plarn you say? It basically is plastic bags cut in a way that can be looped together to form a ball of yarn; but in this case plarn.

Then once you have your ball of plarn you can create tons of projects like you would if you were crocheting or knitting.

I really like working with plarn because I can recycle my plastic bags and turn them into items that people can use.  

Here is the first plarn project I did last week.  I took it to the market and used it along with my other reusuable bags.  I was very impressed how strong the bag is and how much it can hold.  

Here is my bag:

I am loving this bag.  Not only is it reusable but it is waterproof too.  

Well I am off to the market with my bag.  

Oh, and in case you were wondering if these bags are for sale.  I will let you all know when they will be available in my Etsy shop.

Have a great day! :)

Photos of my Craft Fair Products

Good Morning Friends,
I know it has been awhile since I posted on this blog and for that I apologize. Since my last post I have been busy making items for the two craft fairs I attended last month.  But I thought I would share with you the products I sold.

The first one was at a beach festival.  It was outdoors and we had to set up our own tent with our booth.  My friend Kate and I shared a tent space.  It was really cold and rainy that weekend but we survived the three days that we were there. LOL

My craft table. (Everything had to be tied down securely because it was so windy.)

That's it friends.  That is what I have been up to.  It has taken me awhile to make everything you see here. I still have many more ideas in my "Idea Bag" that you will see coming soon.

If you see anything here that you would like to order, let me know.  I haven't put everything on Etsy.  You can contact me through my email.
