RISD's Waste for Life work with plastic bags

I'm impressed & inspired by work being done at RISD with their "Kingston Press": "a 'hot-press' to bond the paper and plastic together."

The plastic looks so much more solid, glossy, and sturdy than what I've been making at home with my iron.

I especially love the bracelets.
