I made this snowman this afternoon took a while to get the bedsprings to cut. lol. He springs. We had old set of bed springs ready to head for scrap.... I said wait a minute got my pliers out and said there has to be something I can use them for. Now I figure they got some purpose. So I brought up Embird and made my little guy. Hat I did quick reg sewing.

How wonderful, I just love it when something is heading for scrap heap and you can make good use of it. You certainly did with this little fellow.
It is a shame DBC is not up . because I bet you would have shared this with us. His little face is so cute.

Hugs Pam.

Thanks Pam and yes I probably would share as it has been said .......... Good things come to those who wait. Patience is a virtue. So I look at it I am learning patience in another step as I walk lifes pathway. So just remind me lol when things get up and running. I also need extra memory.

I'm absolutely fascinated with recycled items and those who can turn something old in to something new. It is my life goal! I would have never come up with this idea. Hats off to you! You did a fantastic job with your little guy! Is he going to have a family? :)
