What you need:
-Plastic Bags (thin ones work best)
-Freezer paper or just copy paper
-Iron and ironing surface
Step 1:
*Collect your
materials
*Flatten your bag and trim the bottom and handles off to make a large rectangle
Step 2:
*If the bag has printing turn it inside out
*We found six to eight layers of plastic work the best to avoid making holes in
the plastic
*Place the bags between two pieces of paper
Step 3:
*iron the bags for around 15 seconds and then flip it and iron the other side
*peel back the corner and see if the layers are
fused, if not iron some more
Step 4:
*Peel the paper back from the plastic and start making your creations
