Perhaps the last week or so has seen you turn the wardrobes upside down saving unused clothing to use for your craft projects.  Well done.  Cleaning out wardrobes is always one of the often delayed chores. 

Now that you have bits and bobs to use for your craft projects the question becomes how best and where to store them so they don’t just become another source of mess.

Page 26 of my Multicrafting E-Book shows you how to turn an ordinary box into something beautiful with the simple application of pretty paper or fabric. 

Last week I managed to save a photocopy paper box from the recycle bin at work.  My plan is to cover that with some paper I brought for $2 per roll.  I have a different color for the lid of the box just to mix it up a bit.  The box is big enough to store some of the goodies I have accumulated that are currently making my study look a bit untidy. 

I will post the photo's of my progress.  Hopefully that will occur this weekend. 

Let us know how your projects are going and be sure to send in some photo's.

A word about Supplies

You will be surprised of how much craft material you have already at home.  Those jumpers no longer worn can be felted to make the coffee cozy on Page 22) and also to decorate hats, bags, tea cosies.  Nothing will go wasted now that you have the Multicrafting E-book and many projects in mind. 

I had planned selling some unused clothing items on EBay but that would have involved lodging fees and postage.  Instead I turned them into fodder for my craft.  I felted a favourite winter jumper that had started to look abit shabby and it's now a craft storage bag that hangs on the door nob.   I stitched it together while waiting on some photo's to upload to face book.  The animal print trim was left over from a wheat bag I had made. That's the only part I didn't hand sew.  Now everything is at my finger tips.

I have plans for another jumper I felted in the washing machine.  It's going to be a flower for the new winter hat I have just finished.
