I'm K.C. - I love to make things by hand for my home, but I must make smart choices to stay within my budget. This is how I discovered my joy for crocheting rag rugs, an environmentally responsible craft that I can actually afford! Once I started creating new things by repurposing old, I was obsessed. I always have multiple craft or diy projects in progress. Learn with me as I try my hand at making rag rugs, crocheting, learning how to use my new sewing machine, and organizing my home. Always trying to save money and use recycled materials whenever possible. Reragg is about using and making the most out of the things I already own. My goal is to create without waste and inspire others to do the same
