How Do You Make A Recycled Hose Handle For Plastic Bags?
Carrying home plastic bags on the bus, train or by foot can be hard on the hands. If you haven’t already gone the way of the cloth bag, here is a very simple way to make your own bag handle holders to protect your hands from chafing when carrying heavy plastic shopping bags. • Cut a piece of old garden hose about 10cm/4″ in length. Measure it before cutting and cut to size to suit your hand width. • Make a slit down one side of the hose piece. This will the part that slips over the plastic bag handles. Be sure to see that the slit is complete across the base of the hose piece. Toss the hose handle holder(s) into your handbag for shopping. It should be easier to carry heavy shopping bags using this simple method.
