Base metal to gold, baby! Base metal to gold!
My upcycling efforts began with a small gift of gratitude for her. It needs a detail, but is almost done. But that's for her. This morning I was inspired to create something for me. ::squeal of delight:: Something to enable my paint brushes to travel easily with me. And so I followed through on that inspiration . . .
It's very rock-n-roll-n-rough around the edges, but it is highly functional! I'm pleased.
As I surveyed and cut the old coat I spotted a pocket. A pocket already made for me. A pocket with snap closures. A pocket that is a perfect size for my Spirit Cards . . .
That's what I made today. Base metal to gold! And the day is still so young!

Wow! What a great way to upcycle and make use of the coat!
Brilliant re-use of the gift from your friend. She certainly was right about you being able to use it.
Oh wow! That's really inspiring! I love it when people upcycle things, and it was so creative!
What a great carrier for brushes..Darn, your clever. Like the pocket idea too..The cards look really lovely..Good job..
Not that I need an extra anything to visit your sites, but most definately there was a little extra pull today, so I came, and now I know why....
