repurposing sugar water pouches


So I'm a teacher, and the kids I teach drink an inordinate amount of these Capri-Sun drinks, which I think are made entirely from water, sugar, and food coloring. It always drives me crazy to see all these plastic drink pouches going in the trash, so I recently started saving them (the kids are so excited to hand me their empty juice container!), washing them out, and making them into bags like this one. This is my first one, and I'm pretty excited about the possibilities. It certainly won't be hard to find the raw materials; I used about 24 pouches in this bag, and it only took me two days to save that many Capri-Suns!
