www.home-designing.com/2008/09/ingeniously-re-used-productsI found this while just searching the web, there were no instructions on how to make it so i gave it a shot on my own, i found this is the best way to do it. Get two plastic pop bottles and wash them out with warm water Get a pen and ruler, from the bottom of the bottle measure up 2- 2.5 inches up. trace line at same height all the way around the bottle. Grab exacto-knife and cut along line carefully. To smooth out the edges heat up small metal rod (like spoon you don't care about) and melt the edges down, then sand. Or simply just sand down the edges. Measure the inside circumference of the bottle cut zipper to size. With glue of choice (i used hot glue) glue one edge of the zipper to the inside of one bottle. Be sure to press the zipper and bottle together firmly and to smooth out imperfections. Trim off excess glue with scissors or knife when dry. Repeat process with other bottle. Once the glue is dry you can Zip them together and TADA! you no have your own bhard container. Use it to carry snacks for the kids and such. Get creative and make it out of other containers as well, i used a milk jug for this project and it looked fantastic.
