Weekly Giveaway: Plarny Yarn Creations!

We've got a fun giveaway this week~ Lynn Adkins is offering one of her Plarny Yarn Creations~ a water bottle with a plarn carrier! Plarn is made from plastic bags made into yarn~ and Lynn is "hooked" on crocheting this post-consumer material into tote bags, purses, hats, fingerless gloves, baby doll clothes, baby shoes and much more!

We'll show you lots more of her creations in just a minute but first let's announce our winner from last week's Giveaway from Groovy Green Glass! We had a whopping 93 entries last week, but we could only pick one: #74~ Jacqueline! Congrats to you Jacqueline! Thank you everyone for supporting our blog and showing so much love to our sponsor~ And thank you, Groovy Green Glass for sponsoring our Giveaway~ You really are GROOVY!

And now we'll tell you more about Plarny Yarn Creations~ Lynn is just getting started on Etsy, but she has tons of her work posted on her Facebook page. These amazing creations are whimsical and colorful, and made from plastic bags of all different colors! Although Lynn says the colorful bags are the hardest to come by, and she offers to meet up with anyone who has them in the area of the Eastern Shore of Maryland. They are so lightweight that you could probably send them to her for next to nothing if you'd like, as well! It's a wonderful way to get rid of the worst offenders of our environment and a great way to support upcycling. Plastic constitutes 86% of the debris in our oceans and over 1 million seabirds and marine mammals die from plastic ingestion or entanglement!

It's hard to believe Lynn can take something like this:

And turn it into these Plarny Yarn Creations:
