Crocheting with recycled VHS tape

Don't toss those old tapes...turn them into crafts instead.

Mon, Jan 26 2009 at 7:51 PM EST

Now that DVDs are the norm, you may be wondering what to do with all of your old VHS tapes.  Here's an idea...why not crochet them into this cool eco-handbag? 
 
Check out MyRecycledBags.com for the instructions for this bag as well as other great projects like recycled rugs and doll clothes made from recycled plastic bags. 
 
Finally...a good use for those old Barney tapes!
 
And thanks to Tina in Luray, VA for the eco-tip!
