Glue Guns and Dryer Lint?

This is the Ghetto Martha Stewert Blog. I love Martha but don't have the same resources. I've been told the term is "upcycling", but I've been referred to as "resourceful". Since childhood I have loved to use crafts as an outlet for my creativity. Being economicly "challenged" I have always tried to use things I already had in creative ways. My mom has always joked that I can whip something up with only dryer lint and a glue gun.
