Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
Got an old measuring tape hangin’ around and some fun buttons? Why not whip up a fun set of bracelets. Bay Area Maker Faire May 21st & 22nd! Want to win a pair of tickets? Pop on over to Craftside and leave a comment to be in the running for one of 2 pairs they are giving away!
Looking for vintage buttons? Check these out on Etsy.
I love kitties and I love yarn, oh and “ugly Christmas sweaters” so this craft is happening now in my house. I have jars of scraps of yarn and of course recycled cardboard from boxes. Prowl on over to the blog Krokotak for the tutorial on how to make side-eye kitties in “ugly Christmas sweaters”. Have fun drawing all sorts of cat faces.
Nice idea. I have seen watches made w/ tape measure bands but never thought of using buttons. There are alot of novelty buttons out there and this is a different, usuable way of displaying them.
