I have been trying to find local businesses that have vinyl banners that they are ready to get rid and find a new use for them. Full Sail Brewing found 4 banners that they were able to send my way to make into bags. At Hood River's Earth Day Celebration, I had a great response to these new bags. I am now pursuing other businesses to send me their old banners to do the same thing. What a great way to collaborate and promote your business while recycling your waste.
Come see the bags at Crafty Wonderland (craftywonderland.com) at the Convention Center in Portland this weekend, May 1st and 2nd from 11am-5pm. After that, I will try and put them on my website, rethinkcrafts.esty.com.
