I cut up a milk jug.
Now I’ve got 5 “projects”: faucet caddy, sad pen cup, microplanter, glovebox scoop, gift box of trash.
Which chaos should win? https://t.co/KmWPcYlKR7

If you give me a plastic bag… I’ll smooth it, cut it, loop it, forget to eat, and call it “batching.” New Eco Hustle Weekly: a cautionary tale of plarn, obsession & questionable DIY. ♻️ https://t.co/KmWPcYlKR7

10 grocery bags → 3 scrubbers
126 strips. 55.5 yards of plarn.
And at least 17 loops of emotional damage.
Reuse isn’t just crafty — it’s math, guilt, and questionable wrist strain.
Full chaos in Eco Hustle #11.
DM “scrub club” if you want it.

Tested bags from Vons and Sprouts to see which loops better as plarn.

Vons = strong, stretchy, shockingly loyal.
Sprouts = elegant until it crumbled under pressure.
One made it. One caused emotional damage.

DM “loop test” if you want the full post.

Some people save the planet in linen.
Others do it with a Target bag they’ve reused 42 times.
This week’s Eco Hustle is about the real MVPs of reuse.
No filters. Just sinks.
DM “scrubber” and I’ll send you the post.

Launched my first DIY kit.
Got reactions. DMs. Local hype.
Zero sales.

This week’s Eco Hustle breaks down what worked, what flopped, and what I’m testing next.

Comment “kit” if you want the link.
(It’s weird. It’s honest. It might involve plastic regret.)

@NiamCliffwin @staynayo I get it. Well you could always just live vicariously through my failures. :)

[Dan Shea @thedanshea]

@NiamCliffwin @staynayo the best things in life sometimes are random. :). I just happened to stumble on this discussion. I actually go over different ways to make side hustles so people get paid to save the planet one plastic project at a time. It might help get you started. DM me if interested.

@Jax90112356 @FNBSA @Jax90112356 have you ever tried making plastic yarn out of the grocery bags?

[Dan Shea @thedanshea]

@NiamCliffwin @staynayo I know it's crazy. Have you tried upcycling your plastic?

Spent $70 to crochet a scrubber out of plastic bags. ♻️😂

It’s lumpy. It’s chaotic.
It’s almost useful.
