I have a lot of old jeans and scraps from jeans that I've hemmed. Most of the old jeans go to the salvation army, but the jean scraps stay in a small pile. I usually use fabric remnants as dusting rags, but denim is too rough for dusting. Perhaps a denim quilt, or maybe headband, but both items not really within my taste or style. I love my jeans, but I think they only belong on the lower half of my body. I never really saw the appeal on the denim on denim look.

(image is of Justin's denim suit) is the only one that could pull that one off.
This weekend I thought of a great way to use my jean scraps. I cut them into heart shapes and made a corner bookmark. To keep the jeans from fraying at the edges I applied a thin layer of mod podge onto the back of the hearts.
