I’m sharing easy ways to repurpose old denim into useful things. I love all things denim, and the eco-warrior in me loves repurposing! Come see 5 quick projects I’ve done to repurpose denim from worn jeans into useful things around our home.

I make quick & easy denim baskets using repurposed denim from old worn jeans. You can use them as a cute country-themed centerpiece, as part of your home’s décor or even as cute gift bags. And it takes only sewing three straight lines. If I can do it, anyone can!

My bathroom window needs privacy covering but I wanted lots of natural light. So I added a beautiful lace window treatment directly to the glass itself. It’s easily completely removable too. So it’s a great option for those living in apartments or rented housing.

I love to use blinds for privacy and valances to ‘dress’ the window up. But they’re so expensive! I decided to use my grandmother’s hand-tatted lace dresser scarf for one of our windows. And a different hand-made dresser scarf for another window. Sentimental window treatments!

Recently I wrote about framing a very large mirror with wood removed from our 1880’s barn during it’s exterior renovations.
The mirror included embellishment using our Elwood barbed wire dating back to 1882. We enjoy using items from our Homestead’s past and bring them close to us in our home.

I needed a large barn wood mirror for our home, but large mirrors in that style are pretty pricy. So we purchased a large mirror at a thrift store and made our own using reclaimed wood from our beautiful 1880’s barn. I love the way it turned out!
