Book Review – Upcycling: 20 Creative Projects Made from Reclaimed Materials

April 3, by Shellie Wilson. Leave a Comment

Are you tired of always buying new furniture and decorations for your home? Want to save some money while being environmentally friendly? Well, let me introduce you to Upcycling: 20 Creative Projects Made from Reclaimed Materials.

This book is written by none other than the eco-friendly, TV presenter, and Dragon’s Den entrepreneur, Max McMurdo. With his expertise in turning junk into treasure, he takes you on a journey to discover your inner design genius and transform your old, forgotten items into stunning pieces that will have your friends and family thinking you’re a professional designer.

The best part? You don’t have to have any previous experience or own expensive tools. Max includes projects that can be completed within an hour and others that take a whole weekend, but the most important thing is to have fun and remember that design is all about experimenting and learning.

So, dust off that rusty old item in the garage and get ready to impress your dinner guests with your newly upcycled creation. Don’t worry if it doesn’t turn out exactly as planned, just remember what Max always says, “Design is all about experimenting and learning, not always getting it right.”

So, go ahead, get creative, and let’s turn some junk into something wonderful!

Modern patterned recycled cardboard and TP tube sculptures

I have posted other recycled cardboard sculpture crafts but today’s really caught my eye for two reasons. The first is the fun way simple patterns created on the surfaces really made this look modern and fun. The second was using a tp tube as the base. The combo of the ovals and the tp tube just went together nicely. Pop on over to the blog Artful Parent to see more about how to make painted patterned recycled cardboard and TP tube sculptures.
