Old Keyboard to Decorate Your T-Shirt

If you have a son, this is just a genius idea: grab keys from his old keyboard and decorate his t-shirt using them.

I am sure this will be the great present he will appreciate:

Candy Wrappers Purse

We have already seen a bag made of recycled candy wrappers. Here's another one: it seems a bit easier to create.

I really like the way ti looks like:

Plastic Straw Photo Frame

Who knew used drinking straws are such useful things! Today's one is just plain cute: a photo frame made of plastic straws.

Related DIY projects: drinking straw table lamp, drinking straw floor lamp, drinking straw chair, and drinking straw light.

Drinking Straw Furniture

Do you like drinking through a straw? You don't need to throw those used straws to trash. Because you can make plenty of cool things using them!

And on top of all, most of drinking straw gadgets look plain awesome (I mean it!) Take thisdrinking straw live light, drinking straw chair and this drinking straw furniture:

Beer Bottle Cap Table

We've seen a few cool gadgets for beer lovers: beer bottles chair and beer bottle coffee table (with them drinking beer is even more fun!). Today's project is one of the coolest (may I say even stylish).

This also will be a great motivation for you to try different beer manufactures: this way the caps will be different and your table will be even cooler!

Pop Tabs Jewelry

While we've seen quite a few DIY gadgets made of pop tabs (surprisingly by the way): like pop tabs belt and pop tabs lamp and pop tabs handbag, most of them required some effort and well, skill. This one is for those who don't have either time or the skill: Pop Tabs Jewelry.

I guess with some creativity you'll be able to create something even cuter:

Readers' Inspiration: Yogurt Container Cookie Cutter

Our very awesome reader D'angelo has another DIY gadget to pimp your creativity: a heart-shaped cookie-cutter made of a used yogurt container. This can be an awesome gift for your beloved on for Valentine's Day: first, it is hand-made (and so much valuable and appreciated) and secondly, this is practical: "I give you the cutter, you make me the cookie" :)

CD Curtain

Today's creation again proves that you can achieve anything with just a bit of creativity (and maybe free time). And this CD curtain doesn't even require much time!

This should be a nice decoration for the interior design, especially of a designer.

Coca-Cola Cap Bracelet

Do you like Coca-Cola? Or maybe any other soft drink with pretty caps? Then don't toss those caps away: collect them and create a nice bracelet (your kids will love it!)

With just a bit creativity you can brainstorm something even more beautiful! Heck, you can get your daughter to draw a draft:

Recycled Magazine Paper Hotpad

Kitchen gadgets are plenty but we'll never have enough of them, right? This one is both useful and easy to create: magazine paper hotpad.

I am not how long this one last but you can create a few:

Drinking Straw Live Light

If you liked the previously shared gadgets: drinking straw table lamp, drinking straw floor lamp and drinking straw chair, you will LOVE this one:

the interaction of the material with light is gorgeous, creating a sort of living organism that changes mysteriously to the touch.

Drinking Straw Light Fixture

We used to mention a couple of really cool DIY projects involving drinking straws: drinking straw table lamp, drinking straw floor lamp and drinking straw chair. The best thing about all of them is that drinking straws create beautiful light effects - this is why they all look so awesome.

Here is another cool thing made of drinking straws: a cool light fixture (detailed instructions can be found here):

Credit Card Magnets

Do you feel sorry when you have to throw away your expired credit cards? They look so cool and besides there's some warm feeling towards them (they've been making you happy for a year or two! And possibly they helped you with your free credit report).

Here's a cool way to re-use your old credit cards: make fridge magnets and stare at them every time you enter your kitchen!

CD Christmas Tree

Oh, I am so late with this one!

But on the plus side, that's a good reason to collect old CDs for the whole year to have enough of them for this year's Christmas tree!

Go spread the idea!

Keyboard Pins

When you already have a keyboard belt, keyboard bags, keyboard necklace and keyboard rings these keyboard pins look like a logical fit.

These can be a great match for your geeky outfit.

CD Shower Curtain Holders

This looks both useful and nice. I am sure it will be a good fit for almost any bathroom interior.

Besides, that's a great way to take advantage of old CDs which is always good (we love recycling!)

Aluminum Cans Earrings

So you can make a lot of useful things of aluminum cans: this pop tabs belt i the best proof. But that one requires hard work and obviously some knowledge and talent.

Here's an easier one for you: earring made of aluminum cans (much like a yogurt cup plastic necklace posted in our readers' DIY inspiration post):

Pop Tabs Wristlet Bag

I've long under impression that pop tabs are the most useless things under the sun.

Well, I was wrong. We've seen a couple of cool ideas on how to recycle them (like pop tabs belt and pop tabs lamp) and here's one more: a cool pop tabs wrist bag.

Look like some hard work - but it's well worth it!

Cool Newspaper Handbags

Like these candy wrappers bags and this magazine bowl we've seen earlier, these handbags must take plenty of time but they have quite a few benefits:

1. They won't cost you a penny;
2. If you create one, you will be proud of yourself;
3. This one should be fun to create (especially with kids).
   

Clothes Hanger Chandeliers

Here's a new cool idea for you: recycle old, unloved clothes hangers in cool-looking chandeliers. These should look good with plastic PET bottle lamps we've seen earlier.

Hangeliers are unique, beautiful and draw attention to the issue of landfill waste at the same time.
