This and That….recycle it..

From CraftIdeasInfo here is a way to recycle a old cereal box into a good looking tote or gift bag. Planet Green has an idea on how to  repurpose those wool sweaters into nice looking mittens. Also check out FeltsoGood on flickr for more images. Recycle those plastic bags into “plarn” (plastic yarn) and make a nice sturdy grocery bag. Thanks to myrecycledbags.com . She also uses cassette tape to crochet Barbie dresses and other things (evening bags!) Her list of patterns here Neauveau Fiber Arts has a tutorial on how to unravel a wool sweater and prepare for repurposing. We all have these to toss, you have to take a look at pwka on flickr , she has a nifty idea to carry your bagel to work in. Perfect! Sports bra from mens underwear, I’ve seen this before, but it is worth repeating, thanks GiannyL. Look at her video  and her website where " Do It Yourself has never been so Sexy" she has some great ideas! Be green Technorati Tags: Cereal box into tote/gift bag ,
