Hey my LoveLees!!!
In most homes grocery bags are often re-used. In our home we re-use grocery bags for trash bags, lunch bags, shower caps (Yes, shower caps! LOL), to-go bags and etc. My pantry is filled with mountains of grocery bags and it was beginning to annoy me. So I decided I need a way to store those pesky but handy bags. One day during my many cleaning sessions, I pulled out the last disinfectant wipe and the light bulb went off... I can use this as a grocery bag dispenser. It actually turned out really nice and I used only a few materials that I already had lying around the house.
Materials Needed:
Empty wipe container
Decorative paper or fabric
Scissors
E6000 (glue)
Grocery bags
Directions: Start by cleaning and prepping your container. Wash and dry the inside of the container, and remove the label. The container I used had a few spots of glue on the container but I rubbed my fingers across the glue and it came right off.
Measure the height and circumference of your container. Cut a piece of decorative paper that matches those dimensions, leaving an extra inch or so of paper on the width so that it will overlap a bit on your container. Spread glue on the back of your paper generously with your E6000, then place the paper carefully on your container. Wrap it around and smooth out any folds or gaps, and allow the paper to dry completely.
Next you’ll prepare your grocery bags. Fold each grocery bag in half, then layer them so that the handles of each bag lay under the bottom of the next bag. Roll the bags up into one roll, starting at the bottom of the last bag.
When your bags are all rolled up, just stick the roll into your decorated container, and pull the handles of the last bag out of the top of the container for easy access. Voila!!! Now you have a nice grocery bag dispenser. I'm planning on using mine int the bathroom because we use them as small trash can liners. You can make one for the kitchen, bathroom, office or your car (for those messes the kids make). You can also use your newly decorated container for homemade cleaning wipes or makeup remover wipes. The options are limitless.
I hope you all enjoy this quick and easy project. God Bless!
