Welcome to Jenny's Video Diary. Welcome to this week's video diary. Yesterday, I was walking to this dustbin with a bag of rubbish. Well, I thought it was a bag of rubbish. Inside it was a pair of my old cotton jeans. I lifted the lid of the dustbin and started to put the bag in. But then, a voice inside my head shouted, No! No! No! There aren't many things that you love like these jeans. Don't throw them away. I thought, I don't have to throw these old jeans away. I can recycle them to make something new. So, today's video diary is about me and my jeans. It's Jenny's Video Diary. Save from the dustbin. After I came inside with my jeans, I had a look on the internet. There are lots of awesome ideas for how to recycle old jeans. T-shirts, jewellery, chairs, plant pots. A few people even make helicopters. And most of the things aren't too hard to make either. Anyway, after a bit of thinking, I decided to make two things. First, I'm going to make something fashionable and useful. And then, I'm going to make something fun. Okay, first up, a handbag. First, I cut the pockets off the jeans. Next, I sewed the jean pockets together. Then, I made a handle. Now, it's my favourite bit. I need to add some cool decorations to my new bag. I think a few stars and a dolphin will look great. Finally, I can put my library card, a little money and my mobile phone in my awesome new bag. Cool handbag, Jenny. Thanks. Wonderful bag, Jenny. Thank you, you're too kind. Well, I've saved part of my jeans from the dustbin and I've got an awesome new bag. Now, I'm going to show you something else I've made. A snake. This snake is really useful. If you put it next to your door, it'll stop the wind blowing under it. In the winter, that makes your room warmer and it makes the heating work better. And in the summer, it makes your room cooler because your air conditioning works better. There's one other thing that the snake is useful for, too. Aargh! Oh, Jenny!
