Creative DIY Projects That Turn Trash Into Treasure
I can’t tell you how much I love the simplicity of this book turned butterfly specimen display that is posted over at the blog Hokey Stokes. See more pictures over at the post. And speaking of recycled book projects over at Craftside there is a chance to win tons of Westcott scissors and a copy of the fabulous book Playing With Books!

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.
This is so elegant. The simplicity is amazingly beautiful. I love to do crafts but never thought of doing something so simple and having it be so gorgeous. I can’t wait to see your piece of art.
