I hate throwing anything away. Lawrence is constantly frustrated at how much junk we've [I've] accumulated and how it creates a never-ending mass of things that need to be cleaned or put away. So, when he tried to throw away his Diesel jeans, I squeed at him and cried inside. They're a beautiful dark blue, thick, solid jean fabric. He had bought 3 pairs because they were on sale. I ended up wearing them. Turns out he didn't like the fit.
He complains that I always save up all this stuff with the idea that it will be good for something one day, but I never actually do anything with it, and indeed end up going out to buy more new materials. Well. Today, I figured out what I can make with those jeans - a shopping bag! These alternatives to your standard market plastic/paper bags are getting popular, why not make myself one? I don't know if I can even bring myself to cut up the pants, the stitching on the seams is very nice. They're very nice jeans. >_< If I lose enough weight I'd be able to fit in them again.
