#upcycle
I decided I needed a drawing glove for my digital artwork, but I find the shiny spandex material most of them are made out of makes me weirdly uncomfortable.
I also decided I wanted to keep this old sock whose partner disappeared several years ago.
The outcome? I have a soft, comfortable drawing glove which just happens to match my tablet!
I don’t think it’ll work on a touch screen, but it’s enough to stop my hand making weird fart noises as it scrapes along the plastic.
Drop crotch trousers made from Mum’s tablecloth.
I’ve been upcycling old t-shirts for my own use. This is my favourite so far. It even glows in the dark!
The bag acquired straps and closures. It’s now my favourite bag to use. The nice thing about making is you can just keep working on an item until you’re happy with it.
More paper recycling. I like to use old paper with some kind of a history. The painted one was done with flour and water. The other I tried with just water but ended up painting it with diluted PVA glue to give it more structural integrity.
Acrylic still life of an African violet on paper I made myself from other paper.
Visible/creative mending on a shirt I was kindly given.
