Grocery Bags

I found this neat tutorial a few days ago about fusing plastic grocery bags together to make reusable grocery bags. We had tons of plastic bags so I decided to go ahead and try it. It was so fun and easy. You stack 4 bags together and then put them between parchment paper and iron them until they stick together. Then you chop them into squares or rectangles and sew them into a reusable grocery bags. We tried it out at the store the other day and it didn't break, so that was good!

The bulbs we planted  in the fall have really started to grow. We are glad that the winter is most likely over for sure, and spring is here to stay!
