Brought to you by the editors of CraftStylish, CraftStylish Restyle is an entire issue dedicated to making the most of old and forgotten -- but still perfectly functional -- items you may have banished to the back of your closet or the dark recesses of your basement.
Or maybe you love to hunt the flea markets and tag sales for underappreciated things you can renew, recreate and rejuvenate for future use.
Whether it's clothes you no longer wear, a raggedy piece of furniture -- even scraps of fabric you find around the house -- they're all raw materials for the glorious challenge of restyling something new and beautiful out of something old and abandoned.
You'll also enjoy the experience of knowing that, in your own small way, you're part of the solution in a wasteful, throw-away society.
With projects that include knitting, sewing, quilting, crochet, home decorating and jewelry making, you'll find CraftStylish Restyle is a hands-on guide to re-crafting and redesigning your surroundings in so many satisfying ways.
Here's an example of the projects you'll find.- How to recycle old cotton shirts into a cozy, comfortable quilt
- Turn a black-tux shirt into a chic little dress that's great for work, play or evening
- Put your leftover fabric to good use and store the money you'll save in an adorable coin purse
With inspiring photography throughout -- and all the expert advice you need to handle every project with confidence -- here are some great ways to transform neglected items into practical, recycled gems.
