Origami w/ a plastic bag

Discussing folding plastic bags at work... someone thought of plastic bag origami.

We chuckled a bit. Then I took the plunge not expecting to find much by image google searching "plastic bag origami." The results rolled in. Why i'm stunned, i'm not sure.



Apparently, they mostly reference instructions on how to 'football' fold a plastic grocery bag to take up less space. My thoughts... just use a reusable canvas shopping bag.

"ooooh... mr. cable... why won't you go there. Uhhh.. i'll be right back."




Here's a more creative use of plastic bag origami... as a wreath. Check out the Craftzine blog for additional recycle / reuse ideas.

Thin Ice Haiku


Where does my ice go?
In freezer, filled trays did place.
Like socks, disappears.

been strugglin' lately...

Do I blog or do I ride?

Hah! Of course.. I Ride!

Especially when I have a special limited edition Gary Fisher Superfly Single Speed!! (yes, its a dedicated SS w/ horizontal drops and no SIS cable bosses.) Just over 20 lbs, and that's with a suspension fork and gank old triple crank converted to single from a Fisher Sugar (so the crank is at least 6-7 yrs old but it's got style... of some sort).

So back to riding... The pics are piling up a bit, though, so more later on the SFSS!
