So, I have a lot of yarn. It’s turning into one of my collections, really. See the huge ball of dark grey on the right? That used to be a scarf (free, from H&M many years ago). I’ve been thinking about using it for a weaving!

“Don’t buy any more yarn,” I told myself, “I have way too much yarn.”
(An overflowing basket full!) But I had a really good coupon, okay?
Once I had them home I realized they look like neapolitan ice cream!
Craft store purchases!
Yarn (coupons!), stamp (clearance!), a colorless blender pencil, and erasers that will hopefully work on colored pencils.
I’ve been making pom poms with my weaving scraps. I usually only have enough (from one weaving) for one pom pom, but I made six from all of these yarn tails!
Destroying Repurposing more things!
I knitted this bag about 7 years ago and it’s been in my closet ever since. The yarn is great though, I just had to save it.
Years ago my friend brought this back as a gift from Hawaii. He’s pretty neat but I wasn’t a fan of his plastic beads and shiny string. The yarn ended up shorter than I wanted, but his makeover is still an improvement!
DIY wrapped bottles
I tried this awhile ago with mod podge like it says, but the yarn wouldn’t stick to the glass and it turned into a horrible mess. Later I had the idea of trying it out with a hot glue gun, and it worked much better! The bottle on the right is also painted white on the top half of the inside.
All finished!
It’s sloppy towards the end, but it gets pretty hard to squeeze the yarn in.
I’ve been working on some mini weavings. The top right one has some cat hair in it (the orangish towards the middle)! The hair formed into yarn-like strands after I took my bed sheets and things out of the dryer.
I’m taking this weaving apart for the yarn. It’s from high school art class.
