I need ideas for re-purposing old bras.

It seems a shame to throw them away.

A clever ways to use an old bra is to re-purpose it into a pocketbook. First, cut off the straps and elastic band and save just the cups. You may prefer to line the cups for sturdiness if they are made of a sheer fabric. Embellish the cups with beads and embroidery. Finish with a ribbon strap and snap closure.

I agree. I try to find a use for all my old clothing. I would try cutting them apart and using the different pieces for different projects. Like a potpourri sachet from the cups. Maybe using the under wire for a bendable arms on a doll.
