It was time... the kids have all moved out... and the bunk beds quickly became a where "things" that didn't seem to have a home gathered. So, the bunk beds found a new home - but what do you do with all the old sheets? Nice comfy flannel sheets...

Summer robes! Simplicity pattern # 9330 is, just as the name implies, a simple pattern for a basic robe. I went the extra step and traced the pattern out on plastic sheeting so that I can re-use the pattern as often as needed.

How nice it will be to have robes for friends and family when the come to visit!

Boots with a Kick


For years now, just before Christmas I go into overdrive, nearly manic baking to fill bags with sweet holiday treats for friends, co-workers and neighbors. I love to bake but the issue is time… so last year I decided to take a different route – several trips to resale shops, some paint, dazzle, glue and yes sometimes even some feathers – add a nice Texas wine or Holiday Shiner beer, a gift tag and  - all new again!

This boot was made for walkin’....
 - but now it has been repurposed to bring to you a cheerful Holiday Spirit! 
 Please feel free to re-gift this boot - Let the cheer keep walkin’!

Somehow the idea that a gift from RePurposed items be ReGifted just seems right!
