fusing plastic bags

Tutorial on how to fuse plastic bags that have handles and ones that don't have handles. I didn't show how to use the multi layer non-folding technique because I don't have enough plastic bags right now.

@riechanster you could sew them together

@riechanster Yes, regular A4 printer paper works! We can't get butcher paper around here either:P I would use a somewhat wide zigzag stitch for attaching them together. There are other videos on youtube for how to layer the bags on top of each other instead of folding. Ideally, you always want to have at least 8 layers of plastic fused together for sewing. I didn't have enough plastic bags to show this technique :-/

I plan on just leaving them small and making clutches and pouches ;)

printer paper? never knew you could use that, so you do mean just regular white paper to print on, right? 'cause I have searched for butcherpaper all over here but can't get it and I would love to try this out!! lovely bag btw! How do you attach these to make one large piece of fabric? or do you just don't do that?

Very cool! I love the design on the first bag you used.
