Squares woven out of coffee bags can be used to make all kinds of baskets and bags. All you need to connect them is string (such as a curling ribbon) and a needle or stick to thread the string through the hinges formed at the edges of the squares. Stunning bags and baskets woven out of coffee bags are unique, practical and durable. And of course a great way to upcycle used coffee bags!

- empty coffee bags (at least 56)
- paper or cardboard
