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

June 17, 2025 by Shellie Wilson

If you’re anything like me, you’ve got a stack of old vinyl records lying around, maybe from your parents’ collection or that time you bought a crate of random records at a garage sale. Well, here’s a genius way to breathe new life into those vintage treasures: this recycled long-play record art piece. It’s not just a nod to the past; it’s a way to keep it alive in a modern, stylish form.

I’ve always loved the tactile feel of a record and the ritual of playing one—there’s just something special about it. So when I found these upcycled records turned into artwork, I instantly thought about how cool it would be to give a second life to my own collection (which is currently collecting dust in the attic). It’s like the record is back from its own time-travel journey, with a fresh purpose and a whole new vibe.

Whether you’re a music lover or just someone who appreciates unique, eco-friendly art, this recycled record will be a conversation starter in your home. Plus, it’s an awesome way to keep the nostalgia alive without cluttering your space.

Why it rocks:

  • Crafted from recycled long-play records

  • A nostalgic, eco-friendly art piece for your walls

  • Perfect for music lovers, retro enthusiasts, or anyone looking to add character to their home decor

Give your old records a chance to shine again, all while adding some sustainable flair to your living room.
