Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
I’ve seen pencil holders made from recycled wood blocks but putting silly faces on the blocks thus transforming the colored pencils into a “hairdo” is beyond cute. Pop on over to Mer Mag Blog for the tutorial on how to make colored pencil holders with faces. Be sure to check out lots of her other fun crafts.
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.
