    This is all very interesting the concept that free things can actually warm a person on a cold night. Or help cold animals for that matter. While the video wasn't very clear as to how to construct it and there were comments about the condensation, it definitely promotes creative ideas to use plastic to help the homeless, or cold animals. Thank you so much dear lady for your all your work and caring!

    it a question of cost efficiency, as the bag is like a nato army emergency bag. they keep in sweat tho.

    I have a idea of making a homeless or hobo shelter in the window shield configuration in cardboard covered in a food wrap plastics. With the added knowledge in origami for the A/V frame. It will be cheaper but effective. But it will be a lot easier to create a mylar liner with a painters cloth like a tortila/taccos style like a sleeping bag.

    i would love to have a pattern to share with the youth at my church as a summer project. Please let me know how these are made.

    Those are bad... They will create a lot of condensation and get the person completely wet in the morning.
    They are like emergency blankets. They are not meant to spend the night, just to warm up.
    If that's the goal buy them emergency blankets, people will be able to keep it in their pocket and they are really light and cheap.

      you can attach paracord 1 foot from the top, and 2 feet from the bottom, on the face up part of the bag. Then you can tie it off to something to raise the face up side of the bag off of you and allow airflow. The bags are big enough that there would be enough room.

    Really awesome idea!
    This sleeping bag could protect against cold weather? What temperature they support? I would like to use this idea to help homeless people from my city.
    Sorry my bad english.

      Hi Gustavo. Yes, these blankets aim to protect against cold weather. Go right ahead, the instructions are included in the description below the video. All the best!

      @@DesignIndabaDI Wonderful idea, so many now are homeless. I read the instructions but was so confused. My table isn't big enough to layout there but could on the floor. I picture of each step might help to understand the actual steps. Thanks for doing this for your city's homeless.

    It's just a plastic bag, so the newspapers aren't even necessary, other than for structure.

    With 1 days pay of minimum wage at a bagle shop you can supply the homeless with 7 sleeping bags that will last years not days, not compromise their health with poor ventilation and temperature rating, and you can feed them with some day old bagles you take home from work. If you are going to try and help people you gota min/max the build. Take advantage of child labor in other countries that can produce real sleeping bags rather than the child "volinteers" in your community wrapping paper in plastic. 🤔

      I'm not sure whether to laugh at your comments or be upset! But what your saying is hideous and beyond that it doesn't make a bit of sense. You talk about poor ventilation, but then turn around and say "take advantage of CHILD LABOR"!? To use the FORCED labor of CHILDREN instead of volunteers (that's how you spell volunteers BTW) makes about as much sense as your ignorant ideas on how to help the homeless stay warm! So not only are your "eureka moment"problem solving skills lacking, there down right idiotic. If fact they would cause MORE problems!
      And for the record Mr Black, using CHILDREN for ANYTHING besides being a child is a FUCKING CRIME!!!! 🖕🏼😁
