Thrifty THURSDAY..No 3


It's all the rage at the moment - Everyone likes to upcycle
We need to do our little bit to help the environment, and I think there is alot of satifaction to be had in creating something new and different from something no longer used.

Upcycled Army bag by kerrishangups. Who would have thought these boring old bags could look so cool.

I remember my Nanna making coathanger covers out of old plastic bags well it appears it is still happening. Here we have a Hobo Bag by carataylor made from coloured plastic bags. She also does clutches and purses.

Where is the week going...

Well I missed doing Wishlist Wednesday this week and I haven't anything prepared for Thrifty Thursday so I think my spoon pendants are pretty thrifty so they are it for this week. These are my latest glam spoons and I love them so much I am undecided as to whether to sell them or not. hmmmm...I guess I am just going to have to make more. Check out some of my other spoon pendants in store.

Thrifty THURSDAY..No 2

Here we go with my second week of THRIFTY THURSDAY...There are so many wonderful things being made from items most people just throw - So if you have found something worthy of being featured join me in my thrifty thursdays


Here we have an item from RETROGRANDMA (I love her stuff). Beatles Abbey Road Record Handbag!!! They are made from the original album covers which has a protective clear covering .

Hows this for a thrifty idea - This clock has been made from an old cereal box!!! It would look very kitch in the kitchen. Find it at AlienBacons etsy shop.
Reusefirst has made this card from discarded paper scraps and old housepaint - They have been silk-screened and I think look very cool and very Thrifty indeed.
I found this clutch that has been made out of recycled photos!! Not sure how practical they are but they look pretty funky and definantly fit into the THRIFTY theme. You can find this and also wallets and handbags made the same way at raspberryconverse on etsy (of course)...

THRIFTY THURSDAY..


As I was a little late in getting my post done yesterday for Wishlist Wednesday I thought I would start a Thrifty Thursday. My idea behind this is to find things that have been made on the cheap from recycled, vintage, found items etc. If you want to start your own Thrifty Thursday jump on board and show me your finds. For my first week I have.................
