Today I thought it would be fun to share some inspiration from other places. So many bloggers have lots of great ideas for using up old denim and I thought it would be fun to highlight some of those.
I have enjoyed "getting to know" Melissa (a fellow Minnesotan) who blogs at Those Northern Skies in the last few months and she has done quite a lot of projects using old denim. She said that I could use some of her pictures and share some links so here you go...

I made a cute trash bag for my car out of the leg of an old pair of jeans. I attached a rope through the top to tie it to the back of the front seat and ironed on a cute ribbon to give it a decorative stripe. I keep a roll of small trash bags inside it and clip the first bag open as a liner at the top so I always have bags handy to keep my car clean.
