• Fused Plastic

    One of the new fads now-a-days is fused plastic bags in order to create purses, waterproof attire, and pillows. I decided to try them the other day according to various website instructions (mainly: http://etsylabs.blogspot.com/2007/05/long-overdue-fusing-plastic-bag.html) and let me tell you...my experience with them was not favorable. I do not know if this is because I lack patience, don't like smelling burnt plastic, or just how they look, but I do not like them. I burned the bottom of my iron (I dislike ironing anyway), made holes in bags, and created a purse along with a pillow. Perhaps I will make more pillows in the future (mainly so that I can create covers for them and have the paper protected by something) or maybe I will not, but here's a picture of my bag that should be waterproof.
