Upcycled and Recycled

I made this bag as a gift, then made the gift bag too.  Just because I find it interesting, I thought I'd list what was purchased and what was re- or up-cycled. 
The fabric for the wristlet bag - scraps from a couple dresses I made for Isabele last year.
The ribbon for the bag - old blanket binding scrap.
The buttons on the flowers - out of the button jar - where all buttons go when clothes are too yucky to donate.
Newpaper - An old The Paper.
The "tissue paper" - the unprinted side of a Wal-Mart bag.
I did purchase the zipper.
I did purchase the fabric for the flowers - fat quarters that I used about 2 inches of - lots more flowers to be made from those.
