This blog is full of creative and unique recycling ideas. I love to recycle things into new things :-) Milk jugs to dust pans, pallets to walls, bed sheets to kilts etc. Since recently disabled recycling has become an even bigger part of my life. Doors to tables and islands, soda bottle to self watering gardens the possibilities are endless and I have the time. Enjoy and PLEASE post remarks or questions, I love getting the input. We like to breath new life into our favorite old things!!!

Suede Boots
I wanted a pair of soft soled boots. So I went to the local Flea market, where I knew there was a lady who sold suede. After a $32 purchase and some creative pattern making here is what I came up with. The bottoms are made from a left over piece of heavy leather I have had for years. The rest is from the suede I purchased, not including the 2 mini purses and sones steampunk aviator goggles. The pattern is winged for the most part, I just tried things until I found a setup I liked :-) The one thing I would change with the way the soles are sewn to the uppers. The sinew will wear threw quickly and an in search of a better, recycled bottom.
