How To Make Walmart Bag Holder |
The Tools of a Champion (or Things You Probably Already Have Lying Around)
- Fabric scraps: Floral? Polka dots? Superhero logos? Unleash your inner designer! Just make sure it's big enough to hold your plastic bag army. (Think pillowcases, old curtains, that tragic disco shirt from high school – the possibilities are endless!)
- Scissors: Unless you're planning a particularly hairy bag holder (not recommended), standard scissors will do.
- Needle and thread (or sewing machine, you fancy devil you): For those who enjoy the therapeutic rhythm of stitching.
- Glue gun (optional): For the impatient (or slightly glue-obsessed) crafter.
- PVC pipe (optional, but highly entertaining): For the truly adventurous. Just be sure you have a way to cut it safely.
- Ruler (optional): Only if you like things precise. We're all about embracing the beautiful chaos of DIY here!

The PVC Pipe Palace: Calling all knights of cardboard and duct tape! Craft a cylindrical masterpiece from PVC pipe, complete with a dispensing slot for your plastic bags. Warning: May result in neighbors asking if you're building a time machine (embrace the mystery!).
The Repurposed Rockstar: Have an empty oatmeal container or a shoebox collecting dust? Slap on some decorative duct tape (because everything is better with duct tape) and voila! Instant bag holder. Eco tip: Repurpose those sad, lonely cereal boxes too!
