How about making cards out of 3D Decoupage or rubber stamping.

Carving wood branches you find in the park with surface designs (like old ivory - scrimshaw) or in shapes that work with the original shape (like carved jade)

A really fun and inexpensive hobby is taking old Christmas cards and recycling them into new cards. Get some pinking shears, glue, blank card stock and start cutting and shaping. Another thing to make from old Christmas cards are gift tags. Easy out of the covers of the cards where there is writing space or the verse on the inside with some ribbon to hold it on the gift. Use your imagination. So much to make out of old cards. Have fun!

Recycle plastic bags by cutting them up in long strips and crocheting or knitting with the strips. You can make purses, hats and bags to hold odds and ends or shopping.
