Taking their used juice boxes and turning them into bags, pencil bags or change purses is a cleaver way to include your kids in your newest recycling craft project. Cut them open and cleaning them out is your first step. You are able to use the one juice box for two sides. You will then sew together your own “fabric” out of this material. Adding straps or zippers will finish up this unique bag. This gets my mind spinning what else could we use as “fabric”… potato chip bags??? Water bottle labels??? This opens up some new possibility…

I've even seen purses like this at TJ Maxx. I love the idea. We're pretty much a bottled water crew though. I'll have to think about what else to do with those besides noisemakers for cheerleading - etc. Thanks for the inspiration!
