#1 Stampin’ Up! UK Demonstrator Pootles – Oliver’s No Score Bag Idea
So back story for you.
Towards the end of Oliver’s last term, so mid July, he came home from school, excitedly clutching a white bag he had made at school using photo copier paper.
I’m not sure what lesson it was in (he’s just finished Year 5), but in whatever lesson it was, they had learned how to make bags out of a sheet of paper.
Well, he came running straight to my office and grabbed a piece of cardstock to make another. Of course, he got a little frustrated and I explained that the card wouldn’t bend in the same way as a thin sheet of paper would.
So I let him choose some DSP to work with and he had another go at making the bag.
Then, in the way that only an innocent 10 year old can speak, he said “And you’ll turn this into a video, won’t you? Please?”
So here goes, with Oliver’s special bag, refashioned just for you.
And hats off to the teacher that taught 30+ 10 year olds how to make the bag….!

I love it that you made a bag that Oliver showed you how to make! I think it’s wonderful when children are enthusiastic about making things and want to share them with everyone! Great job, Oliver!
Great idea. Kudos to Oliver for wanting you to share this. Tell him to show us more of his creations.
