How to fold packages compactly: several proven ways
Plastic bags can come in handy at any time. How to fold the bags correctly so that they do not take up much space? There are some simple and interesting ways.
How to fold the bags compactly?
You will need a small cardboard box with a hole at the top that will fit in the cabinet you want.
· We take the bag by its lower part. With the other hand, we grip in diameter and pull to the hole to expel air.
We put the package on the bottom of the box, turn the side with the handles up so that they stick out of the hole.
We take the next package, expel the air, as in the first case. We stretch it with the lower side into the loop of the first handles.
· Fold in half (it grabs the handles of the previous package) and push into the box so that the handles of the second package stick out from it.
· We repeat the procedure based on the number of bags.
As a result, your bags will fit compactly in the box. In addition, it will be convenient for you to get them from there. As you pull out the first bag, you prepare the next one.
How do I fold the bags? Triangle, cylinder, envelope
You can turn the routine of folding bags into fun. For this it is worth showing imagination.
Triangle
Spread the bag out evenly, straightening any folds and expelling air. Fold it in half lengthwise. Then twice again. You will end up with a long ribbon, the width of which will depend on the width of the bag. You can make the ribbon narrow enough by repeating the folding in half several times. Now fold the bag at the base away from you so that you get a small triangle. Repeat the bend from you and towards you along the entire length of the tape. As a result, the package will turn into a triangle.
Cylinder
Fold the bag into a narrow tape as in the previous method. Then, from the base of the bag, wrap the tape loosely around your finger. Insert the middle and ring fingers of the other hand into the bag handles. Rotate one turn around the axis of the bag just below the handles. Then put the loop on the rolled bag. Remove the resulting cylinder from your finger.
Envelope
Spread out and flatten the bag on the table. Fold it in three times the width of the handle hole. Then fold it in half in depth so that the bottom lines up with the top. Fold in half again so the bottom covers the opening of the handles. Flip the bag over to the other side and tuck the handles inside the resulting rectangular envelope.
