Recycled baskets

I made the square basket out of magazine and the round basket out of newspaper. I really enjoyed doing these as I always wanted to know how weaving is done. It is an enjoyable hobby and you can make amazing things out of newspaper. Newspaper is very strong when you role them up and you can also colour them if you wish. You can find many videos to teach you how about this topic. I wish you would try it. The Technic is in rolling the paper well. Have fun Guys doing this one. Here is a picture of my baskets.

Recycle orange and green slippers

I made these slippers from used plastic shopping bags. I like to recycle plastic bags. I have been collecting these bags because I like these colors. I was saving these orange bags to make a nice bag but my daughter wanted me to make her slippers. I had to use them as I didn't have any. It didn't take me long to do. Here is a picture of the slippers.I did't use a pattern. I cut the size of her shoe and followed it with single crochet.

Recycle handbag

I made this awhile back. I made this out of used plastic bags. You go through a lot of bags to make this handbag. It is very useful and practical. A better use for the plastic bags instead of throwing them away. It will be useful again. If you like to see a video of how I joined the plastic strips together just comment and I will make a video to show you how. Well here is a picture of two bags.

restoration rocking chair

I saw this rocking chair outside a front garden of a house, and I had a big idea to restore it. Recycle it I thought. So I knocked on the door. A young guy opened the door, I asked him can I please have the chair that you have on your front garden. He said sure and helped me load it in my car. I thanked him and went home. I thought I wouldn't do a good job dismantle it so I asked my man to do it. I bought material and new sponges cut to size. We gave the chair a good paint. We put it all together and here it is.  My eldest daughter loved it and she took it home in one of her bedrooms.
