It's in the (plastic) bag!

I have a pantry full of plastic bags.  I have a cute little contraption that I put them in, but lately the contraption is over flowing and I'm feeling more and more guilty the more bags I accumulate.  I'm as green as I think most people are, I recycle and I try not to use up energy when it's not necessary; but let's face it, old habits die hard and I almost always forget my many, many MANY reusable grocery bags when I go to the store.  I have a new incentive to bring my bags with me,one of the stores I shop at gives you a "bag credit" of .05 per bag when you use your own! WooHoo! I know, it's not much, but I don't think anyone can turn their nose's up at chump change in this economy so I will try to remember them from now on. In the meantime, the plastic bags that are turning into "The Blob" in my pantry are another story. In a valiant effort to redeem myself in the eyes of all things and people green, I've started to create things with them.  Here's a look at my first efforts.  Enjoy!
