Resourceful recycling in the Urban Environment

With the talk of recession and cut backs it onnly makes sense for us to re-invent the clothes we have rather than going out and spending more money. By re-vamping our present wardrobes we get new, original and more importantly, individual pieces.

My focus on washing lines and urban clothing led me to this project of re-using the old clothes I had banished to my 'giving away bag'. I came up with the following top and jacket , both completely made from old jeans.
