Repurpose, Reuse and a challenge :)

Hi my friends, and
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU SO MUCH
For all your wonderful, kind, encouraging comments on my new 3ndypapir release. You all made me so happy. More pictures will come tomorrow, so stay tuned. :)

Today wanted to share a little reuse project I have made.
I have this large pile of old blue jeans. I have had plans on using them forever. And the day before Edvins birthday I decided I wanted to give his room a little makeover.
I purchased a new cover for his bed at Home and Cottage, wich inspired me to dig in to the pile of jeans and make a new pillow-cover as well. :)
It made me happy to use my sewing machine for sewing fabric ( not just paper :P ) and what made me even more happy: Edvin was SO happy when he came home and discovered the little makeover in his room.
This pillow was made out of one of his favorite jeans that are too small now ...
a great way to reuse the favorite jeans.
:)

Oh, and not to forget:
It is my turn up having the saturday challenge over at the Cosmo Cricket blog today
:)
:)
My challenge is all about January.
Make sure you join the fun, and post a link to your january layout over at the Cosmo blog, for your chance to win a "Circa 1934" Kraft Kit
:)

Have a great weekend.

Så koselig sengeteppe og pute til jubilanten! Sparer på gamle dongeribukser selv - blir flotte detaljer på syprosjekter!
Skjønn vinterlig layout - alltid fine bilder fra deg. Klem

Huff og huff Gudrun, må ikke begynne å BRUKE noen av alle de gamle buksene vi sparer på, og sette griller i huet på gubbelurene om at symaskiner kan brukes til annet en papir?! LOL!
HERLIG fornying av rommet til E! Må nok finne frem buksene her også,- turteppet er utslitt og en ny sommerferie kommer i år også selv om det ikke virker sånn akkurat nå...?

Ha en videre strålende søndagskveld min venn :o)

I loved this challenge. I went to work immediately on it and finished it in time to photograph it on Sunday. Otherwise, it would be till next Saturday before I get enough light again, lol.
