5. what to do with all those tags?!

Kustom Vans like sneakers w/ crossing guard belt












i got these shoes from a Good-Will store ($20.00) and sewed cut up strips from an old H&M studded belt.

i made some custom t-shirts from my favorite type of t-shirts (Hanes comfort soft V-necks from Target) which were only a $1.11 because it was out of the package. what a great deal ! i made the graphics on them with permanent t-shirt markers i got from a birthday gift.

2. Computer Chips & Old Cell Phones












































































































































































i've had this one computer chip from an old computer for about 2 years now, and i've always wondered what to do with it, because it just looks cool. So one day i decide to make a necklace out of it. After being completely satisfied with the end product, I was driven to make more and took a bunch of old cell-phones i've had over the years, which was on display in my bathroom as an art piece and broke them apart to reveal more computer chips.
