FatBottomBLOG: Living Green in a Colorful World

Summertime & the livings easy


Hi all! I haven't posted here on the blog or on Facebook much lately and after some careful consideration I've decided to make an official announcement.... I'm on vacation! With the garden, family, fun time and seal pup stranding season, I'm just not having as much free time to devote to my online activities. I may still post from time to time as I can but news will be sporatic.

In addition, I will NOT be posting new bags for sale until my return at the end of summer. I WILL still be making Mini-bags for the recycle exchange so keep saving those colored bags! http://fatbottombags.fatcow.com/fatbottombagsrecycledtotes/id15.html

Enjoy your summer & feel free to contact me on my email christi_spangler at yahoo dot com

Christi Spangler - Recycle Crafter / Founder FatBottomBags.com

I'm an environmentally concious crafter living on an island in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I'm also the founder of FatBottomBags.com - a plastic bag recycling program. With the help of over 20 contributing families, we have kept over 4500 plastic bags out of the wastestream!

I am an organic gardener, recycle crafter, volunteer responder for Whatcom Marine Mammal Network, orca watcher, backyard birder and pitbull companion and lover.

Do you know plastic bags in our oceans are killers. 7 sperm whales died in Italy in December 09 from consuming bags they mistook for a food source. So sad and so preventable!

Want to make your own FatBottomBag and keep 60 plastic bags out of the wastestream? Want to make your own FatBottomBag and keep 60 plastic bags out of the wastestream?

I believe when we all do our small part we can change the big picture!

Thank you so much...I don't make my beads...sigh...that is a dream that I have and hopefully I can learn someday. But I do search for the most wonderful beads that I can find...there are such talented artisan bead maker out there! I have my favs and I buy from many different artisans...I try to spread my purchases around to give the diffrent artisan sales. I always welcome a new source.

Smiles, Pam

Hello, and thanks for the kind words! Your profile is very interesting - I grew up just north of you in Vancouver, BC, and we used to go down to Whatcom County where our friends had a trailer in a beautiful forest. I love birdwatching and marine life too, so I look forward to reading more in your blog!! Your plastic bag program is amazing, congratulations on starting this wonderful initiative.

It seems like we have a lot in common, and I'm very glad to meet you!
