Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
Paint can transform recycled elements like nothing else and trying out new techniques can be so fun when, if it doesn’t work out you didn’t mess up something expensive. Pop on over to the link Anna sent in to the blog Journey Into Creativity to see the easy tutorial on how to paint a can and turn it into a pretty vase.
If you like making pom poms and looking for a unique tree topper why not make a big ball of pom poms out of all sorts of colored yarn to make a statement tree topper. After you have made your pom pom tree topper featured at the blog Sugar and Cloth why not use the scrap yarn to embellish the branches like tinsel?
What a cool idea and fun way to be creative. There’s no reason we couldn’t do something like this at a festival where we teach kids about recycling. Thanks for passing that along!
