I encourage recycling and up-cycling! One of my favorite materials to work with is denim, specifically jeans, shirts,etc. Quilts, bags, pouches, aprons, and patches are some of the ways to recycle those comfy jeans. I am sure everyone has an old pair that are past their prime. Creating feathers from the seams from old jeans is easy, quick (as most of my articles are) and appropriate for teens on up. Feathers can be used in wall hangings, jewelry, key rings, etc.
Always remember to reach out to others, try something new or different and creative, and continue now more than ever to support those working for justice!
Materials and supplies:
•Used pair of jeans.
•Scissors
•Paper pattern
•T pin, large safety pin, or large needle
•Optional: beads, leather, cord, metal rings, earring fixings, etc.
