Monday's can be rough... But I'm here to help.

In celebration of my 15th year selling my handmade stuff...
I am going to be featuring things I've seen on blogs, on the internet, in books

...wherever inspiration strikes! On making new items from old goods..

hence, MondayUPs (upcycling)...

***

I love my baby, Sabrina.
I had to take her to the groomers this week to have her nails trimmed;
as I usually do it... but couldn't find my tools...
and they really needed done.

While I was at the groomers, I got to thinking about all that hair...
and then I started thinking about things to do with all that hair.
When I was a teen, we had a Siberian Husky... and she shed SO very much
--- we were always joking about knitting a sweater with all her fur...
and now I realize... there are people who actually do that.

And so...
today's "upcycled" links are all on crafting with dog/ cat fur.

a lady who is doing this exact thing!
