Creative and fun ideas for old things around house? :) Jewelry, key-rings etc?
Well… In a magazine the other day I saw that you can make rings, necklaces and just like a sign out of old computer key board letters. I though this was an AWESOME idea.
I was wondering if anyone had any other cool and hip ideas for me? (doesn’t need to have anything to do with computer stuff)
I’m a 14 year old girl and I love bright colours and funky and creative things.
Thanks for all the help in advance

O and please remember its for making things and crafts such as jewelry, keychains, magnets, decorations etc
