Fold-up shopping bag
 |
 |
| I have this fear that one day all of the plastic bags in my garage will rain down upon me and smother me to death. What can I possibly do with all of those bags? So, I try my best to use reusable bags instead. When I go to the grocery store, I remember them. But for some reason, when I go into any other store, I don’t. That’s why I like to have a fold-up bag in my purse.
This bag is easy to make. You may notice my handles are slightly different from the original pattern’s. That’s because I didn’t read the directions very well took creative liberty and changed it up. It still works just as well. |

The pattern
| I found this free project at Crafty Ady. |
How to fold it
 |
 |
| Lay if flat with the snap side down. Fold over one third of the bag toward the center. | |
 |
 |
| Fold the other side of the bag toward center. Fold the handles down (this reveals the flap on the other side) and the bottom up. | |
 |
 |
| Continue to fold the bottom upwards (I did three folds) and snap into place. | |
