Waste not, want not - selvage projects

I am always at a loss for what to do with the selvages from my projects. Scraps in general, really. I hate to throw away any scraps, convinced I will figure out something great to do with them. Unfortunately that means I have a growing pile of pieces that I have no idea what to do with. Sadly, I have neither the patience or time right now to figure something out. So, the pile keeps growing.

With that in mind, I have seen some great pieces on Etsy made with selvages. Here are a few of my favorites -
