Looking for a quick Valentine’s Day project to do with your kiddos? This project is super simple and can be made with an old t-shirt. If you are anything like me you have t-shirts coming out the wazoo. We easily have over 75 between my husband and I. It is time to start purging and upcycling. That is what this week is all about – T-shirt Upcycle Week.
Making over a vintage trailer probably isn’t something that most of us are going to have a chance to do…but you never know! What I do know is that I love it when I see someone take something old and fix it up to give it a new start at life. So, seeing these once-forgotten camping trailers made fresh and pretty just makes me happy! Have fun peeking inside these sweet little homes on wheels as I show you 5 Ways to Redo a Vintage Trailer.
It’s sweater weather! I bet that many of you have been doing the same thing we’ve been doing: pulling out the boxes of cold season clothing, and figuring out what can be worn for another year, passed on to someone else in the family, or tossed into the giveaway pile. You might want to wait a second before you give them the old heave-ho, and check out the tutorials I’ve found for upcycling everything from cable knit to cashmere.
You know how much I love getting something for free and figuring out a way to fix it up into something pretty or useful. I’m always stopping by the paint department of my local hardware store, and every time I buy a can of paint, it comes with a small stack of paint stirring sticks. One day it dawned on me that those paint sticks gathering dust in my garage were actually pre-cut and pre-measured pieces of free, quality wood, and a world of possibilities opened up before me! I’ve since used those paint sticks to organize my kitchen and my jewelry. I’m not the only one who has figured out that paint sticks = free craft supplies. Check out these five other creative uses..
