Denim Recycling

Denim is a natural for recycling; it is such a sturdy fabric that when the knees wear out of your favorite jeans, you hesitate to just toss them out. Here’s the answer - recycle old blue jeans into Denim Bathroom Accessories, including a valance, bathroom rug, toilet paper holder, toilet lid cover and trimmed bathroom towels.

We also have sewing patterns and instructions to make a Recycled Denim Wall Organizer, Denim Pocket Purses, or Denim Pocket Note Holders.
.If you have lots of outdated clothes made from thinner denim, such as skirts or shirts, recycle them into this wonderful Denim Scatter Rug, shown at right.

For a round-up of lots more interesting ideas for recycling denim, see New Uses for Old Blue Jeans.
