Step 2Prep the plastic bags
I am sure that there may be many ways you can do this but here is the way I have been using.
First I cut the bottoms off the bag.
Next cut the handles from the top of the bags.
I then cut up the side of the bag and open it up.
Next, cut the logos and any other ink from the bag. If you leave the printing on it will be difficult to add color and graphics later that stand out.
Now cut strips from the bag by making vertical cuts every 1.5 to 2 inches apart.
I like to place the different types of colors in separate piles.
*** Although I have yet to try this tip out myself one thing you can do is cut 3in diameter circles instead of strips. It would give the bag a different look altogether. Don’t be afraid to experiment with new styles!!!

Why do the bags need to be cut in strips? Is there a reason you can't just have large pieces of bags?
