| Summit of Awesome Coverage: Day 3 + Beyond photo by Bettie NewellThe third and final day of the Hello Craft Summit of Awesome started off with breakfast bright and early at 8:30 am, and then workshops and events began an hour later. This was another packed day with many, many cool things going on at each time slot, so choosing which sessions to attend was really tough!Jolie Griffin of Handmade in Portland said, "I was really looking forward to Lee Meredith's Photographing Your Work. I'm always striving to improve the pictures that I post. I learned some great things that I know will make my pictures stand out." Lee also gave her students a great two-page handout with tons of tips for better photography -- you can see lots of her own photos here. photo by Hello CraftRead this article | Comment on this article blog.craftzine.com |

7 Unexpected Ways to Recycle Old Denim Jeans Ecouterre shows off 7 unexpected ways to recycle old denim jeans in a stunning photo gallery. Two of my favorites are pictured here. Above are denim Converse sneakers made by an Australian jean company. I love how they show off belt loops, pockets, frayed edges and more. You can recreate this look with our All Star Fabric Swap tutorial from CRAFT: 07. I am also loving these worn out jean cubes by Noyes in Japan shown below. Just give them three pairs of your worn out jeans and they turn them into a stylish ottoman. You can also watch the step-by-step video of the process so you can DIY it yourself!Read the Full Story » | More on CRAFT » | Comments » | Read more articles in Recycle | Digg this! blog.craftzine.com |
