Eco Up Mommy Giveaway

So, I’m on a bit of a freebie and giveaway kick lately.  It’s probably because I always feel the crunch right after Christmas!  Here’s a great giveaway from fellow Etsian Eco Up Mommy…an upcycled sweater bag entitled “I shrunk your sweater bag“.  Visit their blog here for more details on how to enter.

I just love the creativity that goes into upcycled products.  Obviously it is a great thing to do for the environment, but it also takes a lot of thought to envision something which was originally something else.  Whether it is be a bag made of a sweater, a Scrabble tile made into a pendant, or something more intricate, the world of upcycling is becoming bigger and more exciting.   Feel free to leave us a link to something that you’ve upcycled!  We’d love to hear about it!
