Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: Upcyle with St. Patrick

St. Patrick's Day is next week and I thought we would look at ways to upcycle and make some really neat things for St. Patrick's Day. An of course where else to get a good variety of these than Etsy shops.

Look what you can do with a spoon! UrbanFunke has made a spoon into a ring. I have seen silverware made into many things, but I don't think I have ever seen a ring. :)





Do you have old t-shirts around and don't know what to do with them? Why not make a scarf out of them like Nat did over at TrendyEarth. I love the deep dark green of this scarf.






Now if this isn't a clever idea from Sewsomer for recycling those old ties!! How neat is this....:)




And then look at all the different shades of green in this vintage beads upcycled bracelet that MettasCreations. I just love all the different shades. So pretty. 




I think it is amazing all the ideas people can come up with for upcycling things. I like all the greens that are used for St. Patrick's Day and green is one of my favorite colors anyway.  So here is to the Luck of the Irish!

Have a great day!
