Upcycled Tie – Statement Necklace

Tuesday, August 2nd, 2011

This tie is made as a statement necklace – I think it would look amazing over a crisp white button-down for a twist on a traditional office suit.

Love this – Found it at greeneggsnhamm.

Dictionary Art

Monday, August 1st, 2011

This is such a great idea for upcycling old dictionaries, textbooks and sheet music.

I founds this idea on rufflesnadstuff.com – make your own or cheat like crazy and buy it on ETSY.

In this case – either is perfectly acceptable!

Upcycled Garden: Garden Art – Very Smart

Thursday, July 28th, 2011

So I had this rusted out tomato cage…

I flipped it over and used pliers to curl out the ends of the rusted prongs.

Next I used the pliers to adjust the prongs to fit my favorite colander and viola!

Very Smart.

Just Like Me.

Upcycled Art: Fabric Canvas

Tuesday, July 26th, 2011

I tried to make a quilt once, the remnants of my efforts are still stuffed in the back of my closet under a pile of clothes I keep for “just in case” reasons.

This is the coolest “quilting” idea ever – I could use up some of the old fabrics I have laying about, or upcycle that baby quilt i tried to make into a piece of art perfect for the nursery.

I love this idea, and I found it here.

Yarn Jars

Friday, July 22nd, 2011

I was feeling pretty good about myself when i completed my first knitted face cloth, it was even    somewhat square.

I was feeling good until i saw the one jeney made.  Hers was pretty and perfect and mine suddenly looked like a pot holder.

No one wants to wash their face with a pot holder

These cute little jars made me feel a bit better! I found them here.
