Terracycle Project

For this project, we were to create a container using only recycled materials. Since my computer died during winter break, I chose to create a laptop bag out of my old computer!


 I found some orange canvas from a scrap fabric bin, and decided to use that for the interior of the bag. The fox painting was already on the computer, so it was perfect that the canvas I found was orange to match!


The bag is reversible, and the keyboard (which was my favorite part about this computer) is exposed, so when you're bored, you can type on your messenger bag!


Here is the inside. I lined the computer with colgate toothpaste tube for a shiny interior.





Finally, the strap is made with braided canvas secured to the interior of the canvas bag via a knot and some adhesive. I had a lot of fun with this project!
