The blog I found and have decided to highlight is titled Reduce Reuse Upcycle. This blog has a little bit to offer everyone, ranging from abilities such as sewing and knitting to being able to roll up a piece of paper. Current posts even follow a very festive Christmas theme, so you can get lots of responsible ideas for the holidays from the blog! There are a lot of different ideas involving the re-purposing of old clothes (both men and women's) and a large amount of ideas regarding home decor items too. As the blogger says her goal is to bring upcycling ideas to everyone in order to reuse things that don't need to be trashed, save people money from having to buy new stuff when you can make stuff out of trash that is just is nice, and to satisfy everyone's craft habits! I will highly the craft in particular that led me to the website. The idea was to take old beat up bottle caps of your favorite beverages and turn them into magnets, which I thought would be fun to show anyone who looks at your fridge what you like! Rather than tossing away your caps you can turn them into something useful like to hold up all those Christmas cards us college students get right??

Nifty site! I was hoping when I looked through it that there would have been some crafty, easy present wrapping ideas that involved upcycling...but alas...no luck. Bottle cap magnets would make for easy, CHEAP presents for a family member. =)
