Unique Necktie Crafts

One of my most treasured possessions is a blanket that has been in my family forever – a blanket made from men’s neckties! I believe my great-grandmother sewed it with my great-grandfather’s old ties when he retired from working.

I absolutely love that blanket, and it’s always been special to me as a handmade item that we treasure in our family. As a result, I’ve always loved crafts with ties!

I’ve been thinking about going to the thrift store and buying a few ties and making something, so I pulled together a collection of 20+ unique projects that you can make with them.

I have some ties listed on E Bay one set sold the other is just hanging around. Now my husband has a shoe box of more ties. I was wondering if you would be interested in these for your craft projects. I don't have the time to do any crafts these days.
