I needed a nice "something" to hold the plastic bags and put it near the front door. I wanted a fast 'n' easy way to collect them immediately. You see dogs are always impatient when they want to go out. And I always had to open the kitcen sink cabinet to find plastic bags.                               materials needed: emtpy tissue box, plastic adhesive roll and scissors.mesure or mark the box on the adhesive

cover carefully the box eith the adhesive plastic 

fold the edges around the sides

trim the excess cover away fold the corners of the plastic

it's easy to mark the inside hole because you can feel the blank 

and last, cut the center as the picture above. Also, it could be a nice idea to make a cover with fabric. I haven' t learned how to sew yet, but when I do I'll give it a try!

p.s. I apologize for the poor quality photos, I have lost my cameras charger...

May Day - Πρωτομαγιά!

1st of May except of International Workers' Day is also a spring holiday, that can be traced to ancient greek  customs as they celebrated the officially begining of the spring. Making floral wreaths is one of the characteristics customs of May Day, and may also have its roots in ancient greek history.

 

This is my version of the wreath that I found at PerlillaPets blog, using this tutorial. It's a little bit different and is made out of plastic grocery bags.... hope you like it!
