I've got a few old pairs of jeans I had been saving with the intention of "one day" using them for a craft.

Well, I'm about to move and "one day" hasn't come yet, so I thought I'd offer them up just in case anyone wants them. I've got 5 pairs and I'd like them all to go to the same person. They're not really wearable anymore but would be fine for crafts.

I don't need anything in return, just want them gone! If I've got no takers they'll probably just get tossed.

Post here if you're interested!

I hope you find someone who wants them. I have quite a few that I have been saving.When I was still teaching art, my third graders and I tied two denim, shag throw rugs for the new visitors room in our school. People donated and I rotary cut lots of strips. One year I helped my granddaughters make Valentine pockets for their classmates. I had been saving pockets from old jeans. We put a ribbon handle/ hanger,on each one, then they decorated them with little felt hearts, tiny flowers, etc. Candy was added and also a little note.

I also have a pile of jeans in my laundry room. I'm actually thinking of using them to make patchwork upholstery, but I've had that thought for a while now! I also want to talk Megan into crafting some old denim for the magazine....
