Hello everyone,
We’ve recently taken in a collection of carrier bags (before they became decomposable) and I’m now about to start marking them. I was wondering how other people had approached
marking carrier bags and wouldn’t mind sharing their method? (I wasn’t sure if cornstarch paste and tissue would be best or if it would peel off as the bags are very flexible.)
Thanks,
Eleanor
