Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
Over at Inhabit there are these pillows by Pieces of You made with vintage clothing tags. I have saved some tags that either had a cool graphic or were a cool name. I could not figure our what to do with them but this gives me the idea to use them as patches and top stitch or satin stitch them onto a project.

I don’t have much available way space as I cover my walls with art. But I do have big white plain kitchen cabinets so this idea for putting big red ribbons on them to clip the Christmas cards to is perfect. This idea for displaying holiday cards is featured at the blog Life As Mama along with a bunch more.
Great idea! Someone I know made a teething blanket with the tags. Instead of ribbon sticking out, it was clothing tags.
I collected clothing tags for some years and finally sewed them on a piece of linen.
Unfortunately my husband put the whole thing in the washing machine before I could frame it. Well it looked much better before…
