Take a look at DocPop’s giant beer cozies made from a pair of recycled denim jeans. He also has a link to his coffee cup cozies, also made from recycled clothing. At this time of this posting his Etsy shop had sold out, but check it out as he restocks regularly. Even if you don’t buy anything, he’s got lots of pics and some great ideas for re-using items. In fact he advertises that all items are “remade in USA” LOL

Pimp My Jeans is a one of a kind service. They work with you to customize your own jeans or you can choose one of their semi-custom jeans options. This is an excellent way to keep a pair of jeans out of the landfill.
I’ve used them to customize a pair of jeans that fit beautifully but were out of style, to rescue a pair of jeans that had ripped in the wrong place, and to take a pair of bargain jeans to the next level.
