"What am I going to do with my pile of old t-shirts? I'm going to wear them. The ones that are now retired are mostly used already. I've made bracelets, though not with jewels as shown here, children's clothes and pj's, and quilts beyond belief! It certainly is fun to be creative with something everyone has and most throw away! Thanks for more ideas."

"My current favorite cheap craft is quilted plastic shopping bags. I've also made some fancier zipper bags from the same materials- discarded plastic shopping bags."

"I've used 2-liter bottles for yarn, but I cut the bottoms off instead of around the neck. It takes a wee bit of effort to thread the loose yarn end through the neck of the bottle, but I ofn't have that split where the bottle straightens out. They stand up nicely in little paper gift bags, so I can change colors easily. This really only works with the pull-skeins that unwind from the center."

"Most days, you will find me with my hair up in a messy bun with maybe a clip or two in place. Doesn’t mean I don’t still enjoy headbands – I just wear them decoratively, rather than to hold my hair back. This headband is worked in one of my favorite stitch patterns – the granny stitch, and my favorite joining method – the Pull Loop Through (PLT) Method (though you can substitute this for your choice of joining method). Working two pieces, and joining together gives you the freedom to create any combination of two tones, but it also looks great in one solid color. You could also wear it with the hair tie in the front instead of at the back."
