Use Your Stuff theme is Recycled, Upcycled! Your challenge is to add something to your project that was once something else!
It could be cardboard, or perhaps you used some saran wrap or bubble wrap to do a mixed media element, what about a napkin technique, or maybe even cutting out some elements from magazines or flyers as die cuts. Lots of exciting possibilities for this one!
I love repurposing things so this challenge is something I try to do regularly. While this project isn’t paper it sure is recycled/ repurposed.

I've been doing a bunch of hiking this summer.
Every Friday I head out to hit the trail. My goal is to do 4-6 miles each time. I always carry the ten essentials with me plus a few extra items. My 5x7 tarp is one of those helpful items I carry. For the longest time it has been riding around in a plastic bag, but I made it a custom pouch from an upcycled shirt.
wish I had taken a before photo but this is the best I could do.
I loved the graphic on the shirt but not the banding on the sleeves as it's tight on the upper arm and I wasn't a fan of the hoodie either
finished this pouch off with a small piece of paracord and a toggle.
I hope I inspired you to upcycle or recycle an item in a crafty way.
Make sure to share it with us at Use Your Stuff
