    I have used bird seed bags to cover outside chairs, make seat covers for my truck, and anything else I can think of so that I don't discard them to the land fill.

    I tried making a mat out of Plarn (the cut up plastic bags) and mine were so squishy....like it felt like it was moving when you walked on it.....I think if you could do it "firmer" it might be better? Unsure....

    maybe you did yours too loose?? because when finished they are usually kind of firm, I hope you aren't giving up!!
