Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
I made forts as a kid primarily with a blanket tucked into the drawers of a desk but this idea for poking Christmas lights through a box simply makes a magical place no one would ever want to leave. It also makes it a great space to curl up with a book and read. Pop on over to the blog Balancing Beauty and Bedlam for a bunch more ideas on how to make forts out of recycled items.
I love vintage matchbooks and their graphics, they are such a cool little bit of history. Even the concept of a matchbook is dated as there isn’t smoking in public places. So repurposing the packaging format to hold all sorts of tiny things is such a great idea. Pop on over to the blog Reading My Tea Leaves to see all sorts of things you can package in a matchbook and how to make them.
