Reducing our Pastic Waste

This term we have been learning about their environment and how we can keep it clean. We have made fabric
bags to use instead of plastic bags. We have made beeswax wrap to wrap our food in instead of GLAD Wrap.
Our class is trying to encourage everyone to try and use less plastic. It was really fun and I want to do it again!

How to make the beeswax wrap.

Firstly you  get 100% pure cotton fabric.  Then you can you put baking paper on the bottom of a tray then put
your 100% cotton fabric on top.  Great some beeswax and put it on top of the 100% pure cotton fabric, after that
lay another layer of baking paper on top and get a hot Iron. Iron the fabric with the sheet of paper on top until the
beeswax has melted completely.Sometimes you miss the edges and there's no beeswax on them so just a put more
beeswax on the edges and melt it again.Once you are done put the beeswax wrap over a clothes  horse; it will
only take 1 minute to dry.
