Step 2Preparing your plastic bags
This project is best done in a well ventilated area. You are going to want to set up your ironing board near an open window with a fan on! Plug in your iron and set it to the highest temperature setting before steam (it is blends on mine).
While your iron is heating up you want to prepare your plastic bags. You first need to cut off the handle and then the bottom of the bag so you can open it up to its fullest size.
Once you have cut off the extraneous pieces turn your bag inside out (if their is print on the outside it will make a sticky mess!)
Once you have it opened up you are going to fold it so that their are 8 layers of plastic. To do so you begin by folding it in half (that should make 4 since it was already doubled) and then fold it in half again!

- I recommend 8 for the thing grocery bags, but you can get away with 3-4 for thicker plastic bags
