                Upcycling ideas & upcycling projects!

                Sick and tired of seeing so much fabric and material going to waste! Well then, it's time to make a difference! The beauty of upcycling is that, with a touch of imagination and perseverance, any old piece of clothing can be upcycled into something absolutely stunning! So pick up your sewing needles, knitting needles or crochet hooks and start creating!

                Recycling your wardrobe: DIY at its finest!

                Now you're ready to upcycle, let's get you started with some upcycling ideas. Maybe you'd like to turn an old pair of jeans into an adorable soft toy, or an old sweater into a poncho for every season... the possibilities really are endless! There really is upcycling projects for any season, style or occasion: so whether you're looking for a skirt, mittens, bag or clutch for yourself, or even a soft toy for your little ones, you'll be sure to find something to tickle your fancy!

                Upcycling itself, also known as creative reuse, is a creative hobby that is becoming more and more popular. Closely linked to recycling, it involves taking your unwanted products and materials - be they jean, jersey, wool, cotton ot canvas - and turning them into into better quality materials or products that are also environmentally friendly. And here at Makerist, although our goal is to ensure that your crafting projects are carried out with the maximum enjoyment, we also love to see this tied into the environment and solving environmental issues, too! So with our upcycling and recycling projects, we can help save the environment whilst also having a great time doing what we love!
