This tutorial is part of my introduction to the Life Reimagined Project that YouTube, AARP, and some other partners are currently testing. My viewers have been offered first dibs at checking it out! The Life Reimagined Project is a designed to create a network of peers and mentors that will support each other in their path towards exploring the "what's next?" moment we all reach in lives at one point or another.

In this video tutorial I show you how to repurpose or reimagine some regular grocery store plastic bags into something functional and practical-- a wallet!
I walk you through step-by-step how to fuse the plastic bags together to create a tri fold wallet complete with 4 card pockets, 1 ID pocket and a full bill compartment.
Supplies needed:
3 plastic bags for wallet body
1 plastic bag for pockets
rotary cutter +mat or scissors
rulers
Iron- with a dry setting
manila folder
few sheets of plain white paper
sewing machine + thread
velcro dots (optional)
