Description:
This swap involves upcycle crafting. Send you partner one project that has been upcycled and repurposed. Examples of this would be - - upcycled poptart box, decorated and repurposed to be a pencil holder - unused wool yarn, made into wool dryer balls - fused plastic bread bags, repurposed into a reusable sandwich bag for lunches - candy wrappers crafted into coin purse If you need more ideas, just google upcycle crafts. I am a big believer in not spending much money on swaps, so use something you would normally recycle to make your craft.

Janeengland is right. I never join swaps with this low of a rating.

This is great! I love to cleaning out my drawers at home and thinning out my crafting supplies and putting both to use! Upcycling or recycling using only things you have on hand can be great! I've made lots of super cute mini notebooks from reclaimed paper and scrap decorative paper. Also from fabric and reclaimed paper that would normally be tossed out. so fun!
