Your very own Pocket Protector!

Have a lab coat or work shirt that is lacking a little pizazz? Ever poke, dye, or leak onto your underclothes because you are carrying around dangerous objects in your shirt pocket? Well this Instructable is for you!

Essentially I had gratuitous amounts of time and plastic bags lying around, an iron handy and a lab coat that was screaming for some spiffy pocket protection, so lets learn how to make you the envy of the work place!

Step 1 Materials and Methods

To start with you'll need a pocket in need of protecting. I chose my lab coat.

Next you'll need a waterproof, relatively tough material to line said pocket with. I had been reading up on the new fangled and oh so popular idea of fusing plastic bags to make a fabric so I decided to experiment with this technique! Really you could make a pocket lining out of anything, but like I said the more water/liquid/ ink resistant the better.

Materials used:
-plastic bags
-paper
- electrical tape
-saran wrap
-cardboard

Tools
-scissors
-iron
-pencil/sharpie ect
-printer
