Instagram - my journey on upcycling

. Girls who use curling tong will understand this and I hope, appreciate it too. Yes, it’s a neck protector! . Please don’t look too close at the workmanship as I made it in a hurry during a very short trip home where my sewing machine is, and did it around midnight on the night before I was due to leave. . I used a piece of leftover fabric, cut it into the desired shape and size, sewed it together and added a snap fastener. I’m pretty happy about it as it’s super practical and no more curling tong burns on my neck! . #upcycling #upcycled #upcyclingcraft #greencrafts #sustainability #sustainableliving #madebyhand #creativity #practicalcrafts #curlingtongburn #curlingtongs #環保愛地球 #環保生活 #升級再造

. Made the card the other day to accompany a birthday present... . The card and flowers were card off-cuts and the leaves were from an angpau/Chinese New Year money packet, an easy craft! . #upcycling #upcycled #upcyclingcrafts #junktotreasure #wastenotwantnot #greencrafts #sustainability #sustainableliving #birthdaycards #gifttags #madebyhands #handmadecards #creativity

. Simple embroidery on a shawl given to a good friend for her forthcoming birthday. . I was thinking it would be nice for her to use it on the plane as she is a keen traveller, but she did not wait and used it almost immediately as the air-conditioning in the Orchid Conservatory of the Majestic Hotel, Kuala Lumpur where we were having afternoon tea was almost Arctic-like.... I was very happy that she liked the gift, put it into use and it looked beautiful on her! . An early happy birthday greeting to my dear and beautiful friend May. Wishing you a fabulous time when it comes. Lots of love❤️ . #celebratingfriendship #embroidery #embroideredshawls #creativity #madebyhand #happyday

. Second upcycled Christmas tree ornament in the blue & tassel series... . Usual materials — plastic bottle rings, satin bias tapes, gold beads and tassels. . Took the pictures at different time of the day to present different moods... do you like them? . #upcycled #upcycling #upcycledart #greencrafts #sustainability #sustainableliving #sustainable #madebyhands #christmasornaments #christmasdecor #creativity #upcycler #環保愛地球 #環保 #升級再造 #christmas
