Question: Make a cute bracelet out of plastic bags.
Options:
Try and get different colored bags from shopping, you probably already have a nice collection in a cupboard somewhere. Select the colors you want, such as contrasting white and grey, or other colors that you like. Cut into three strips, each 12 inch x 2 inches. Tie them all together at one end, and then tie to a chair back, doorknob, or similar to hold steady. Take 2 strips and slide the 3rd strip under and to the side. Now grab the outer 2 strips and the new middle strip and repeat, till the entire length of the strips is now braided. Remove the bracelet and tie the ends together, at the desired length. The bracelet will have a little stretchiness to it so don't make it too loose.
