Beeswax Wraps

Namaste Bloggers 

My class is learning why we should stop using single use plastic, we should stop using single use plastic because it is harming our environment. We made beeswax wraps because it is one of the only ways to reduce single use plastic. Here are some instructions of how to make some beeswax wraps.

How to make Beeswax wraps

What you’ll need 

• 100% cotton fabric 
• Pinking shears 
• Beeswax pellets 
• Baking paper 
• Iron
• Old towel 
• Cardboard (optional)

Method

1. Choose a fabric that is 100% cotton.
2. Cut the 100% cotton fabric with your pinking shears, and measure it so it is 30cm by 30cm.
3. Place the cardboard,on the table then lay down an old cloth then continue with the steps  (cardboard is optional).
4. Lay down your 100% cotton fabric on your baking paper.
5. Sprinkle a handful of your beeswax pellets on your fabric and make sure you do this evenly throughout the whole fabric.
6. Put another piece of baking paper on top of the fabric. 
7. Grab your iron (call an adult if you are a kid or if you need to) slowly go over your fabric and make sure that all the beeswax is  melted.
8. Peel off your fabric from the baking paper (be careful) and shake it gently until it has cooled down, now you have a beeswax wrap.

Why we should stop using plastic bags

Namaste Bloggers

       Today I will be telling you why you shouldn't use plastic bags. One of the reasons is that if we keep using them then eventually all the sea creatures will die. I did an info graphic with my friend and class mate Teva this is the info graphic.

 

Thank you for reading my blog post if you have any more reasons you can tell me them in the comment section.
