Tania Romualdo is a very prolific crochet artist – and she comes up with some fantastic small (and sometimes large) projects to recycle simple, everyday objects we might find around our homes. While her blog is in Portugese, she writes English very well!

I think the items pictured at the top of this article would make great favors for a wedding, done in the proper colors. Here’s another recycling idea from Tania:

I mean… who wouldn’t fall in love with a monkey hugging a donut? This Cute Donut Monkey Crochet Kit from HiCrochet might just be the most adorable thing I’ve seen all week. It’s sweet, silly, and totally irresistible. Whether you’re new to amigurumi or just love a good weekend project that makes you smile, this kit has everything you need to bring this donut-loving little monkey to life. The design is playful and full of personality—and let’s be honest, that donut accessory is a whole mood.

This kit would make the cutest gift—either made up or as a DIY surprise for a crafty friend. It’s beginner-friendly, super fun to stitch, and the final result is something you’ll want to show off on every shelf (or maybe sneak into your snack drawer for fun). If you’re looking for a lighthearted project with maximum “aww” factor, this little donut monkey definitely delivers. Let me know if you make one—I’d love to see how yours turns out!

Hi JD,
I’m so flattered by your post… Thanks for your lovely words. It’s really nice to learn that people all around like my simple projects. And it’s always good when we are able to catch people’s attention for the importance of recycling. After all, mother Earth is our home and we should take better care of her.
Hugs
Tania
