‘Bag Ladies' Upcycle Plastic Bags into Bedrolls

Terri Flower weaves plastic grocery bags into bedrolls for people who are experiencing homelessness.

The spare bedroom in Terri Fowler's Fort Worth home is filled with bags of bags. The retiree weaves them into bedrolls for people experiencing homelessness.

"I think we all need to help in any way we can," Fowler said."People shouldn't have to live like that." Fowler is among a handful of volunteers who spend their spare time weaving together loops of plastic bags. "We don't know how lucky we are until you're unlucky, and that's unfortunate that you have to be unlucky to figure out what unlucky people need," Fowler said teary-eyed."We need to care about each other."Download NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth
