Creative DIY Projects That Turn Trash Into Treasure

Board Game Makeover

by

Craftster‘s monthly challenges are usually tons of fun for those who like to repurpose or recycle objects into crafts. This month’s challenge is no different: Total Board Game Revamp. Your challenge is to take an old board game and upcycle it — the board, the game pieces, all the accessories — into something craftlicious. Leah, the administrator, writes, “You can remake it into something totally different and unexpected or perhaps even make it into a new game altogether. Whatever you’re inspired to do with the board game you choose!” See the official rules at craftster.org. The prize, other than bragging rights, is a brand-new Verilux lamp of your choice.
