Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
When I first spotted this pretty green tree I thought it was made of socks. But then after a closer look it is made of mittens. I thought it would be a great way to do a donation collection for charity. In Los Angeles they say one of the most needed items are socks but I imagine in colder climates mittens and hats would be great too. I spotted this pretty Christmas tree made of mittens over at the blog Vott pa vott blir tre.
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.
