Creative DIY Projects That Turn Trash Into Treasure

Giveaway and review of Cloth Paper Scissors: Studios

by

I have another National Craft Month fun giveaway for you today. Leave a comment in today’s post by Midnight Wednesday March 30, 2011 and you are entered to win a copy of the eye-candy filled Cloth Paper Scissors Studios Spring 2011 magazine from the great people at Interweave Press.

This issue is filled with inside peeks into all sorts of artists’ studio spaces. What is so fun about this is you get to see how people like ourselves store, display and arrange their “stuff” along with where their magic happens. I can’t wait to implement some of the pretty ways these creative peeps have come up with to keep their stuff in a way that lets them enjoy it as much before it gets used as during and after it is part of a project.

More about Cloth Paper Scissors Studios Spring 2011:

The Spring 2011 issue of Studios features an artist on the cover for the first time: designer and TV makeover show host Ty Pennington! Ty offers a tour of his new studio and insights on design, organization, and inspiration.

Other highlights of this issue include:

  • 28 artist studios!
  • 10 must-have new gadgets
  • 25 creative storage solutions from our editors
  • A top designer’s tips for creating a “mom cave”
  • The lowdown on apps that help you create, organize, and design
  • Artful ways to decorate your studio door and mailbox
  • How to share your studio with a furry friend and keep them—and your art—safe and clean
  • An excerpt from Pam Carriker’s new book: Art at the Speed of Life

Handmade with a Past: Tuesday’s Top Recycled Etsy Find

Art can speak volumes, but it doesn’t have to cost the earth—literally. This recycled artwork, framed and ready to hang, is a perfect example of how beauty can emerge from the unexpected. It’s made from upcycled materials, bringing new life to discarded objects in the most artistic way possible.

This piece has that effortlessly cool, modern feel that I just adore. It reminds me of the kind of art I used to make as a kid—finding bits and bobs around the house and combining them into something that just worked. Only now, this work is polished, framed, and ready to elevate your home decor. It’s sustainable art with a story to tell.

What’s really great about this kind of art is that it adds character, depth, and meaning to a space. It’s not just a pretty picture; it’s a reminder that beauty can come from reuse and recycling, and it’s a nod to those of us who want to surround ourselves with eco-friendly treasures.

Why we love it:

  • Made from recycled materials

  • Each piece is completely unique and crafted with care

  • A conversation starter for your sustainable home decor or eco-conscious gallery wall

If you’ve been looking to add a touch of meaningful, eco-friendly style to your walls, this recycled artwork is definitely the way to go.
