Repurposing Denim Jeans


I love recycled denim projects. There's a natural charm about them. Face it, jeans have been around since the 1800's and we have developed our favorites. We find ourselves hesitating to toss them out when they are worn beyond repair.

One way to keep them is to re-use them.

You may remember my denim skirt into a bag post. It was very easy to do.



Since then, I've discovered more amazing ideas to utilize those beloved denim pieces. There are quite a few on my "to do" list.


Okay, maybe housing the wildlife is not what we had in mind. So let's check out these inspirations:
