Rug out of old t-shirts...

This is a pretty classic idea, but still a lot of fun



You probably have a cupboard full of t-shirts you will never wear again

   By using your scissors you can make stripes out of them...
...and knit them into a rug!
My final piece. Not bad for a first, don't you think?
You can find the tutorial on YouTube :

Up-cycled cellphone circuit boards & other stuff....

It is definitely still summer, maybe it's last few days but who cares... all we should do is enjoy it while our government is draining the last cent out of our pockets. And although it is hot outside, September still makes me crafty...

Since I have a box full of circuit boards most of them part of old computers or cellphones, I decided to make something out of them : Book markers!






And since "they" are emptying our pockets I decided to make something  out of an old apron to "hide" my coins in   ;-)   :




 
I hope the government won't look here...

A little key-chain wallet so I don't have to fit my actual wallet in my pocket when I'm at work...

And last, another key-chain, this time out of fimo:

Summer inspiration! Slurp..
