Heart2Heart posted something a few years ago on the DANGERS OF PLASTIC

The Dangers of Plastic Bags August 6, 2008

And now is happy that there are other ways on how we can recycle plastic bags!!!  Who would think you can make plastic bags into bags as beautiful as these?

 

Thanks to my cousin, Tara, for introducing me to this wonderful creation and for bringing me along to the Lopez Museum to join this interesting workshop!!!

 

Take note of this beautiful work of art by Malang!! which was our backdrop of the workshop. Love it!!! 🙂 

Demo by an Invisible sister on how to turn plastic bags into beautiful and colorful handbags

A male crocheting? WOW!!  

Tara crocheting! and Marianna checking out the workshop in behalf of her Mom, Tita Cedie, Executive Director of the Lopez Museum

and saw Tricia and her daughter also in the workshop 🙂

Ms. Earth even visited and was crocheting with us…. though everyone wanted a photo with her… Tara noticed that there was a sudden growth of the male population in the area 🙂

Since I used to love crocheting when I was in gradeschool, so even if I have not done it in a long time, I still remember and can still crochet as long as you give me a needle and thread 🙂  So this is what I made in around 20 minutes and I had to go as I could not stay the whole workshop

And outside was a booth selling the bags…HOW NICE!!!!  These are the creations from plastic bags made by the Invisible Sisters.  They range form P 500.00 to P 1,500.00.  It takes around 2 to 3 days for the workers to finish a bag- so most of the cost goes to the daily wage of the workers
