The weather is getting warmer; beach trips and hosting outdoor festivities are on the horizon for the upcoming months. What a better way to kick off the warmer seasons than to extend the life of your reusable shopping bags and create something new and exciting for the home. Using recyclable and reusable tote bags from brands like Urban Outfitters is the perfect starting point for a do-it-yourself project.
The material used in this repurposed stool is pp non-woven, or polypropylene non-woven. It is a synthetic material that mimics the texture, strength and appearance of woven materials without it actually being knitted or woven together. Pp non-woven is so versatile that it can be made into a reusable shopping bag, drawstring backpack, pouch, and is durable enough it can be woven and braided to make a fun piece of accent furniture. Since pp non-woven comes in an assortment of colors, your DIY accent furniture can fit into your indoor or outdoor décor with great ease.
Whether you are lounging outside in the summer sun with friends or entertaining guests in your home, one thing that will always be a conversation piece is a DIY project; especially if it was made from eco-friendly and sustainable materials. The combination of earth friendly materials and warmer weather can serve as an inspiration for your next repurposed bag project.
