I am loving them but one is my favourite

Cool ideas.

Nice ideas thanks

I dont think a denim pillow would be comfortable!

I like idea #3

I made a denim backpack with my sister's old jeans. And a handbag from my brothers. But i didnt go through the whole trouble of basket weaving type. I cut off the legs and sew up the bottoms and used the legs to make the handles. Very easy. Took me only three hours

Love these ideas! Thanks
