Christmas projects...all upcycled and took an hour to make (LIP)
Since I didn't have anything in particular to work on and felt like crafting, it's been operation craft using whatever I find in my house.
I used the straps of brides maid dresses to make an ornament:

I used old felted wool sweater sleeves to make a hat for LO:

I used scraps and a shirt we had to reverse applique a snowflake. Then I bought more shirts to make more.

I used an old pillow as stuffing and scraps to make fabric Christmas tree garland.

I need to look at what I have and create from that more often. It's amazing how much I made for free! Each project took about an hour.
