I was dubious about using blue denim for the giraffes. In fact, I intended to make them all from sand coloured fabric and paint true giraffe markings on them. However, I tried one in denim and absolutely loved him. I abandoned all ideas of sand colour and paint, and have gone over to making just denim giraffes.
So cute!

This blog shows my recycled denim creations, along with tutorials for items I have designed myself. I collect old jeans (a strange collection, I know!) and cut them up to make bags, purses, animals and other items of varying sizes and shapes. I then sell these to raise money for weomen and children in the town of Utange, near Mombasa, in Kenya. I help women to set up their own businesses and am supporting the building of a new school for disabled children.
