This week is all about the plastic bag. We get inspired to use reusable shopping bags and get a lesson on how-to make one out of old clothes. Plus, a glimpse into the world of recycled art and some sweet posts from our Forum members. It's fashionable to be green!

You could find a sewing machine at local thrift shops, or on your local craigslist, if you live in a metropolitan area that is. I found a 8 stitch sewing machine at my local savers thrift shop, for $30. but hehe ended up paying over $70. cause didn't have sufficient funds, not funny actually. But yeah, hope that helps.

wuts a craigslist? i have an angie's list mag that comes every once in a while, but thats all. there also arent many OPEN thrift shops here where i am. well, there are a few, but they always seem to be closed for maintenenance or construction =( do you know any kind of specific brand name that might help?

Thrifts don't come in brands per se. You might have St Vincent De Paul shops, or Goodwill or Salvation Army, or there may be thrifts that benefit the local Hospice or church or Habitat for Humanity. Lots of other things, too. Even with the Salvation Army thrifts, what you find at a given location will be really variable. Some stores may never carry sewing machines, or maybe no shoes, or no bicycles.
Just google or search craigslist and then narrow it down to your area. It is an online list.

true about Rebecca, I could understand better if she showed more of the steps, and explained more in detail. But Yeah, such a cool cool bag.

I have already subscribed but that banner that says please subscribe is really really annoying, It makes watching your videos hard to take.
re useable shopping bags are pretty cool but where I live the netherlands supermarkts charge for shopping bags and dutch people are cheap so customers always use re useable shopping bags I think all supermarkets should charge for shopping bags
