Plarn

Makenzie and I were searching for a new craft project and I came across plarn.  I'd NEVER heard of it before, have you?  It's plastic yarn made out of bags, so it's environmentally friendly and gives you a use for all of your old Wal-Mart bags, or actually any type of bag, some of the crafters were using bread bags and they turned out great! I was wishing they still had the blue Wal Mart bags so we can make some blue plarn.  It so easy to make plarn but I added a video so you can see for yourself just how easy it is!


Our first project was to make little dish scrubbers out of the plarn.  I think our next project will be a plarn bag or purse.  We plan on making water bottle carriers, doll clothes, and an outside rug.   Just type plarn in your search engine and a LOT of thigs will come up!

 Makenzie made a scrubbie and so did I, they are super easy!
