Make it Monday | Let's make an Eco-Kite

Here is a cheap and fun way to use up any lingering plastic bags by upcycling into a cool kite.

You will need:

- Any old carrier bag - without holes!

- Scissors

- 2 thin sticks or paper straws

- Masking tape

- Ribbon

- String

What to do:

1) Cut your plastic bag into a diamond shape - whatever size you wish

2) On the back, attach two thin sticks or paper straws in a cross (from point to point). Make sure they are secured with tape.

3) Attach a length of ribbon to the bottom and tie other off-cuts to create a pretty tail.

4) Tie a long length of string onto the sticks. Do this where they cross over and double knot the string.

5) Go fly your kite.
