It's widely known that denim is a hardy material so don't throw your jeans away as there are lots of upcycling projects you can use them for...

Claire Armstrong, owner of @pillarboxblue says: "Don't you think succulents and denim look fantastic together? I do! So, I've used this recycled jean planter to display them. I love their rustic look." What's great about this denim upcycle project is that it's 'no sew'. All you need are tin cans, cut-off hems and seams from old jeans and good-quality glue.
