Jean Pockets


I had some old blue jeans that had seen their better days, so rather than throwing them away I decided to recycle parts of them.  I couldn't resist doing a fabric collage on these pockets.  I hope everyone is having a wonderful day.  Thanks for stopping by my nest!

    These jeans pockets have a wonderful new purpose and lovely look. Endless Possibilities and Blissful Inspirations...
    I read several of your back posts and your fabric and lace collages are stunning.

    Such a wonderful idea. The nature theme works so well with the denim.
    Such a perfect little piece of collaged art.
