I love the needle case, however no where in the description does it say itā€™s made from remnants or that it is upcycled.

Have added some bits to the descriptions. My ā€œaboutā€ section says everything is made from leftovers.
Thanks.
If not suitable for your page, then just ignore.

Youā€™re very welcome and I am more than happy to help when and where I can. I just do not do well if I am obligated to do something as I then feel stressed and get nothing doneā€¦ go figure

How about jewellery made from an old 10 pin bowling ball? (only the colourful plastic on the outside no one wants all that weight hanging off their ears)

Or waste resin from a custom surfboard workshop in Cornwall turned into a pendant

I have got quite a lot of the cured resin but the layers of colour arenā€™t consistent through out the block making each piece unique.

Well, to be honest, all my items are unique and many use upcycled fabrics, but how about this one - a plaster cast of bluebells. There are others currently listed as well.
I am no longer making these as they are too heavy to carry en masse to fairs, so Iā€™ve gone back to textiles. That means all these plaster casts, while always one-offs because of the way they are made, are now truly one of a kind. Plaster cast wall plaque - bluebells - unique s... - Folksy

Thank you :grinning:

Working on Pinterest myself, after your link the other day, Iā€™ve got the pin button on my pc and started a Fabulous Folksy Finds board, still have a lot of filling up to do and havenā€™t succeeded in getting that button on my iPad yetā€¦

Hya love this thread as most of my items are repurposed materials, its a passion of mine. I usually used rescued furnishing material that business discard when they go bankrupt of end of lines etc. So many more in my shop but hers and exampleā€¦
