Book Review: Upcycle: 24 Sustainable DIY Projects – Eco-Friendly Design Meets Crafty Creativity

upcycled furniture

If you’re someone who finds joy in transforming the old into something new, then Upcycle by Rebecca Proctor is a must-have for your creative bookshelf. This visually rich book is not your average recycled crafts guide—it’s a stylish celebration of eco-conscious design and modern sustainability through hands-on creativity.

The book highlights 24 innovative upcycling projects, all crafted by contemporary designers. Each project turns discarded or everyday materials into stunning, functional items. From furniture made with pallets to light fixtures created from repurposed plastics, the book challenges you to think differently about waste—and what it can become.

As someone who’s always looking for recycled home decor inspiration and ways to reduce landfill waste through crafting, I found this book incredibly refreshing. It’s not just about crafting for fun (although it is fun!)—it’s about mindful making. The focus on design-led upcycling means the projects are genuinely beautiful, not just cobbled together. These pieces could easily fit into a modern home or creative studio.

What I loved most was the way each designer shares the story behind their materials and their process, reminding us that there’s a narrative behind every reused object. The photography is bold and professional, making this book not just a tutorial guide, but also an inspiring coffee table book for fellow eco-conscious makers.

Upcycle is a creative manifesto for sustainable living, perfect for artists, designers, and DIY lovers who believe in the power of reuse. Whether you’re repurposing for the planet or simply love the beauty of unique handmade pieces, this book will leave you full of ideas.
