Zine: Recycled Crafts, issue 1, April 2009

I made my 1st zine this month and handed them out during the Earth Day Fair. They are also available at the Chelmsford Main Library. Future issues will be available at the library as well. Here is what was in it (just click on it for the link).

Plastic Bags:
Make a Winter wreath
Make yarn to knit or crochet with
Fused plastic bag tote

Juice Pouches:
Notebooks
Place mats
Bags

T-Shirts:
Yarn
Bag
Purse
***There are books available at your local book store that are all about recycling t-shirts.

Ways To Recycle:
Do a Google search to find how to recycle specific materials. Example: "plastic bottle crafts" gave me 319,000 websites.
