Recycled Denim #Trending

Denim throw pillow made from recycled pants for Louis Donaghey's #trending theme. Demin's always trending and I'd like recycling to always be trending too! After sewing several strips of demin together (pic 2), I played with ideas of how I'd sew those strips together, thus the other pics included.

Recycling some jeans!

This is so not artsy, but totally crafty. My theme for my journal is recycling/upcycling. I decided to work on recycling some jean material I had. These are my first attempts. OK, but not really making me super happy....so I went to pinterest for some more inspiration....
This is where I went next. I decided the 3D stars were much better. The first star on the left took me about 45 minutes, all the trim was hand sewn on. Not practical for a small Christmas tree decoration.Then I got smarter. The second and third star took me about 15 min each. So, here's my best Christmas decoration recycled from an old pair of jeans!
