storing plastic bags

You should know the drill by now, you should always say no to a plastic carrier bags!

But, we sometimes forget. Or the really efficient sales staff have wrapped up our purchases so quickly that we have not had the heart to tell her off. Green or not, we all have that stash of plastic carrier bags in the kitchen drawers ready to reuse, biding their time until they’re ready for the recycler. And they’re most probably taking up more space than we’d like.

I’ve actually been folding up my stash into little triangles. It’s not a new idea, I can’t even remember how I stumbled across it on the internet.

I recently came across a blog with pictures, here, and thought I share the idea with everyone. I only have a little paper bag now to hold my stash ready for reuse.

Happy folding!
