How to Customize Reusable Shopping Bags

March 17, by Francine Clouden. Leave a Comment

Learn how you can customize reusable shopping bags in just a few minutes with your Cricut Explore and your favorite color of Cricut vinyl! This Customize Reusable Shopping Bag DIY by Beth Kingston of Kingston Crafts is a great project for beginning crafters or if you are new to Cricut. In this DIY you will learn how to transform an inexpensive reusable shopping bag by simply adding a phrase to the front and back of the bag. If you don’t have a Cricut machine, you could still recreate this project using another cutting machine or iron-on letters. Once your reusable bag has been customized, you can now be the fanciest person at the grocery store with your ”new” reusable shopping bag! Use these same techniques to make titles or journaling for your scrapbook page too!

Why should you make your own shopping bags or totes?  Plastic bags are from the same source as all plastic: crude oil. So what is wrong with crude oil? The manufacturing process emits considerable amounts of pollution, and the product is not biodegradable. On land, plastic bags are one of the most common types of litter worldwide. As plastic bags are lightweight and float easily, this means they can travel long distances when picked up by the wind this includes landing in the ocean. Then wildlife gets tangled or ingests the bags, both in the sea and on land.  Make a difference and make your own shopping grocery bags.  Have plastic bags you need to re-use? Consider making these DIY upcycled plastic bag crafts.
