Jeans What Can You BE?

I took a pair of black jeans that my mom's friend Carolyn gave me to recreate with. Congratulations to Carolyn for losing a ton of weight and getting rid of all those big clothes. I made two purses, I cut out a bear pattern and I still have another section to make another purse. Wow, I think I used almost every inch of this pair of jeans. I also used old ties to embellish with and use for the shoulder straps. What do you think?

Scraps to Pretty Purse

This was scrap pieces left over from a previous purse I made. I just can't bare to throw anything out. I need help. LOL I figure I could have a worse habit, right? I just don't want to fill the landfill any more than necessary, why when it can be restyled.

You can check out my previous blog that shows the other purse I made from the same skirt.

Crazy Vest to Purse

This one was fun. A lot of times I like to play around with an article of clothing to see what it wants to be. LOL I'm serious though!! LOL Well this wanted to be a purse. I wish I had taken the before picture.

Angora Sweater to Purse

Okay this is it for tonight!! I have work tomorrow. Oh, how I can do this forever. This was a goregous sweater but even a more goregous purse.

Blue Sweater to Purse

Here we go again! When I'm on a roll, I'm on a roll!! LOL This sweater has character so I thought it would make a cute purse.

Little Girls Skirt to Two Aprons

Oh, these aprons are just adorable! I bought this cute little girls skirt from a second hand store and I originally thought it would make a cute purse but I've been making too many purses so I wanted to try an apron or two. Here they are!

Sweater to Purse

Okay so I can't seem to figure out what people like more aprons or purses or totes or ... So I thought I would make a little bit different shoulder bag. I'm not certain I like this one. It does seem to grow on me but I don't think I would personally use it. Maybe for a young girl. What do you think?

Tank Top to Bag

This cute little white Canyon River Blues tank top got paint on it but as you probably already figured out I have a terrible time throwing things out, why will be another post. LOL Well I made it into a grocery bag. I made two roses from the bottom of the tank that I cut off. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Pretty Pink Dress to Purse

I love pink and black together so here is another cute purse from a dress. I also love to recycle. One day I would love to write a book on recreating clothing.
