A while ago now, I upcycled/recycled some curtain tiebacks for 10p from a second hand market I visited, they sat in my fabric stash for ages, I knew they would come in useful one day and they did!
Because of the shape, the tie-backs were perfect to re-cover some cheap coat hangers, a set of three from the £1 shop, I used some lavender I had left over from making other items and scraps of broderie anglaise, ribbon and buttons and I created this lovely coat hanger and lavender hanger gift set.

This weekend I bought a pair of lovely Dorma curtains from eBay, which I can't wait to recycle into shopping bags or use as lining fabric for other bags.
