Chaque jour pendant tout le mois d'avril sauf les dimanches, je poste un article commençant par chacune des lettres de l'alphabet. Cette annĂ©e mon thĂšme est, dans l'univers du textile, le recyclage, la rĂ©utilisation et la valorisation. Plein de bonnes idĂ©es de bricolage facile !
Et vous aussi vous pouvez jouer ! Voir en bas de l'article.

Every day during the whole month of April except Sundays, I write a post starting with each letter of the alphabet. This year my theme is, in the textile universe, about upcycling, recycling and repurposingLots of good easy DIY ideas!
And you can play too! See below.

U comme umbrella, ou parapluie.
C'est un objet assez fragile en fin de compte, et c'est souvent la structure mĂ©tallique qui casse. Que faire d'un parapluie cassĂ© ? Non, non, ne le jetez pas 😉

U is for umbrella.
It's a pretty fragile object after all, and it's often the metal frame that breaks. What to do with a broken umbrella? No, no, don't throw it away đŸ˜‰

Les baleines sont cassĂ©es, mais pas toutes, et une partie du parapluie peut ĂȘtre rĂ©cupĂ©rĂ©e ? Alors voilĂ  de quoi ravir vos enfants, ou vous-mĂȘme !

The ribs of the umbrella are broken, but not all of them, and a part can be recovered? So here's something for your kids to enjoy, or yourself!

Ombrello the reusable est un curieux projet de conception durable. 2 jeunes crĂ©ateurs italiens ont repensĂ© le cycle de vie d'un parapluie, trouvant des moyens originaux de prolonger sa durĂ©e de vie. Le dessin de la toile est constituĂ© d'une sĂ©rie de patrons qui permettent - aprĂšs avoir dĂ©montĂ© le parapluie cassĂ© - de le dĂ©couper pour crĂ©er rapidement de nouveaux objets : des guĂȘtres, un sac, ou une housse de selle pour le vĂ©lo.

Ombrello the reusable is a curious sustainable design project. Two young Italian designers have rethought the life cycle of an umbrella, finding original ways to extend its life. The design of the canvas is made up of a series of patterns that allow - after dismantling the broken umbrella - to cut it up to quickly create new objects: gaiters, a bag, or a saddle cover for the bike.

The skirt I'm not so sure about but for younger kids the batman costume is great. I hadn't thought of making a bag but it is the perfect fabric for it.
Unknown a dit

La jupe pas trĂšs pratique pour s'asseoir, mais j'adore le costume de chauve souris et le parapluie "couture" !

Une amie utilise la toile de vieux parapluies pour confectionner des "charlottes" qui recouvrent les récipients au frigo (alternative zéro déchets au film transparent)

Who knew even broken umbrellas are useful! That kid is super cute, though I love the wreath the best of all. :)

Ombrello the reusable is an interesting concept. I love the bat costume using the umbrella. That's so creative. Weekends In Maine

trop fort! incroyables ces idées avec les parapluies!
Vivian a dit

Ok, yet another thing I would have never thought to recycle! And it makes so much sense --- how many times has the wind blown your umbrella inside out and all you can think to do is chuck it in the trash? Love the bat costume, the hook racks and the tote bags!
Jamie Ghione a dit

Yet another great idea.

I like the handles as hangers. And, the beaded sticks are great! I like the idea of using them as plant stakes. I have to take a look at my broken patio umbrella (actually the fabric is rotted) and see if any parts are salvageable. The ribs are not thin like the stakes.

Love the lamp and the parasol festooned with fairy lights.

Hi,
Really like all your suggestions for re-using broken umbrella's. I
really like the deck umbrella suggestion. Have a great day!
Deborah Weber a dit

These are all fabulously fun idea. I love the umbrella skirt. It may not be practical to sit in, but that's a minor inconvenience. And bat wings! I want those too.
Liz A. a dit

Oooh, batwings. I wish I had seen that a couple years ago. I had a broken umbrella and a nephew at just the right age. Alas...
Janet a dit

What great uses for an old umbrella! I think maybe the skirt would be a little hard to sit in but all the rest of them are terrific! The bat wings for a costume is brilliant!

I like the Ombrello project and the idea of a cover for a child's backpack.
ms_lili a dit

Such an array of uses. The door bouquet is so pretty and could work for any door inside or out or even on a fence. The one with the pattern marked on it after its inevitable demise is a neat idea.
Trudy a dit

My mind is blown by all the ideas for how to reuse old umbrellas! I especially like the coat hooks.
Anstice Brown a dit

These are such fantastic ideas. I love the bat costume. My daughter would love that.
Kathleen a dit

Bat wings!!! So cool! I also like the beaded plant spikes.

These are just great -- and I really laughed at the skirt :-) In NYC, umbrella vendors pop up at the corner during rainstorms and you can quickly buy an umbrella if you need one. As a result, most of us have MANY umbrellas. You've given me great ideas for some of mine. https://mollyscanopy.com/2021/04/undaunted-seventh-blogiversary-atozchallenge/

These are fun! I have a number of broken umbrellas which I've been using anyway, but maybe now is the time to let them move on to another stage of life.
