Wardrobe Refashion Tips

The folk at Nikki Shell's fabulous and newly revamped site Wardrobe Refashion are geniuses (genii?). Have a look at some of the wonderful stuff they have created from used and pre-loved items of not only clothing but food cartons!!

Minnietheminks takes an old rice bag that has served its time as a rice holding implement and transformed it into a useful peg bag simply by inserting a hole in the front, a wire hanger at the top, stitching all in place, et voila - one unique and beautiful clothes peg holding product - hurrah!

Meanwhile, PumpkinNiki has made not one but two new items from a drinks carton (or in this particular case a pumpkin eggnog carton!! - those statesiders will consume anything, ha!). With some clever cutting, folding and stitching, this recycler extraordinaire has a new coin purse and business card holder - FAB!

Many more refashioning ideas can be found at Wardrobe Refashion

Awesome! I'm glad you like it! I try to make useful things out of trash, without it looking trashy.

Minnietheminks did a much better job with her rice bag than I did with mine! I am so glad my one little purse idea has inspired others to keep rice bags out of landfills.

It seems her and I are just taking turns inspiring each other! LOL
