In celebration of Earth Day, I am going to recycle my posts to highlight crafts that that have been made from something else!
My dad gave me leftover sheet metal from duct work in his house, which I have turned into magnetic memo boards and Advent Calendars.
I upcycled my old day planner into an acrylic stamp binder/organizer and a wooden game board into a drink tray.
From cereal and soda cardboard I have made many mini scrapbook albums. I have made plenty more from cardboard and posted the photos in my projects set at Flickr.
I painted and flipped over Old Listerine Pocket Pack containers to create teeny tiny photo frames.
From grocery bags, I made a library book bag and a coin purses.
Also, I like to refinish furniture and include it in my everyday living like my craft storage center and my printer stand.
Happy Earth Day!

April 23, 2009 at 11:36 amHi, I’ve been reading your blog for awhile now and just wanted to say how much I love it! Can’t recall how I stumbled on it but glad I did. Thanks for posting about the Craft Menagerie nights at the Boone Co. Library. I work at the University of Kentucky and have signed up for the one in May. It’s a bit of a drive but I love to craft and never seem to find that kind of thing around here.

Thanks Gayle!
Carrie, knowing you would drive up from Lexington to craft with us delights me! I will be leading the May Craft Menagerie and look forward to meeting you!
