Folding Plastic Bags for Easy Storage

Storing plastic bags frustrates me. You know what I'm talking about...all those Target and grocery bags! I have a few reusable fabric bags, but it's never enough and I always leave the store with 10 more plastic bags.

I reuse plastic bags but I have a hard them storing them. They are crumbled and wadded up into balls. Then stuffed in a drawer. It's a mess and takes up a lot of room.

My mother in law introduced me to folding them into little triangles, and oh my gosh, how that changed my life! Hah. It is so simple and clever.

I found a tutorial on Youtube - here it is:


Isn't that great? =)
Good luck and start folding away, my friends!
