Fun In The Making
Looking for lots of crafts made from recycled materials? You’ve come to the right place. I go beyond soup can pencil holders here. It is all about greening up your crafting and moving toward a more sustainable way of living. This site is full of eco-friendly crafts for children and adults. Making use (re-use really) of otherwise unwanted materials is good for the pocketbook and good for the environment.

Vintage Wooden Puzzle Made Into Refrigerator Magnets
Posted Feb 3, 08 -Filed Under gifts from recycled materials, home décor (recycle and upcycle)
I found this vintage vegetable puzzle at a thrift store. I thought it was charming so I give it new life as refrigerator magnets. They are a perfect accent for my kitchen. How-2: keep an eye out for a vintage puzzle of your liking. Alternatively, use a puzzle that your child has outgrown. These puzzles turned frig magnets will make a fun keepsakes. Use a hot-glue gun to attach strong magnets to the back of each piece.
