Lately I've been wanting to get our pup some toys. She's a pit bull mix and has VERY strong jaws so every toy we've gotten her she rips to shreds. My Aunt, who also is a pit bull owner, suggested that we just get her toys from the dollar store so we're not spending a boat load of money when she'll just destroy them in a heartbeat.
I DID ONE BETTER!
Ryan recently ripped a large whole in a pair of jeans. So before he threw them out, I got an idea!

I'm sure I could have just patched the hole but I'm also sure it would not have been "pretty" |
 |
I cut the legs which allowed for four ropes |
 |
I then, cut each leg strip into three smaller strips. I tried to make them as even to each other as possible. |
 |
Knotted them at one end |
 |
I braided the strips and knotted the other end. TADA!! Nala now has four NEW toys! (Only three are pictured because...) |
 |
Well you can guess... |
|

SHE LOVES THEM!
Checked off my "to-do list!"
Great Idea Nicole! I am sure they didn't last too long, but what a good way to use up something you would have thrown away.
