"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."

"Sit your coffee/tea on this pretty floral mug rug with a sweet treat on the other flower, or use it as a doily. Change up the colors to match your decor and/or the time of year. Imagine burgundy and beige for Fall! You'll need a small amount of worsted weight yarn. I used Knit Picks Dishie, and recommend a 100% cotton because its more durable and absorbent, but any yarn will do. This mug rug took me just under an hour to complete."
