Plastic Grocery Bag Origami

Do you have a plastic grocery bag stash? Maybe you even made one of these or these. Maybe they’re just stuffed willy-nilly into another grocery bag. And then, one you pull one out, about six more come with it. Well….Cafe Munchkin has solved that multiple withdrawal problem. Enter plastic grocery bag origami! Basically, the technique is similar if not exactly like folding an American flag. The result, however, is a neat little triangle that takes up a fraction of the space as a crumpled up grocery bag. Ms. Munchkin keeps her origami triangles in a pretty shopping bag for easy access.

A white triangle is on a wooden piece of furniture.
