100% recyclable

 that is what it said on the piece of card in the bottom of this bag........so I decided to take it at its word and recycled it........
........into two more duct tape books!


 I used the piece of card in the bottom of the bag as the covers for the bigger book and then cut the rest of the bag up to make the pages for that book and the covers of the smaller one

 there was even enough to make a couple of tags that are tucked into a folded up edge.....used a bit of washi tape to hold the flap in place


 the smaller book has watercolour paper for pages....held in place with a rubber band

 the handles of the bag were a heavy fabric ribbon, that was recycled into ties for the books.

I like! I like that it is recyclable and re-purposed into a fabulous piece for further playing.

That's cool - it would be perfect to bring on a trip (EAST) and put in bits and pieces of this and that from the trip
