Creative DIY Projects That Turn Trash Into Treasure
I don’t know why but making a cactus out of paper or crocheting them just is funny. They look so cute. These paper cacti are so easy and I bet would look fun out of recycled cardboard boxes maybe? Pop on over to the blog Nem Graphisme for the free downloadable cactus patterns so you can make your own paper cactus decoration. I’m also thinking maybe some handmade paper or painted paper might look fun?
I have a confession: this bottle cutter kit has been sitting in my Amazon cart for days. I keep coming back to it, imagining all the wine bottles I could be turning into classy glasses, candle holders, or even a whole DIY lantern lineup for my patio.
If you’re even a little bit crafty (or maybe just drink a lot of wine—no judgment here), this kit looks like a total game-changer. It’s got everything: a stable base, adjustable rollers, gloves, a glass paper smoother—basically all the stuff you’d forget you needed until halfway through your first project.
What I love is how this makes upcycling feel super doable. Instead of tossing those beautiful gin or whiskey bottles, I could be turning them into one-of-a-kind gifts or home decor pieces. And let’s be honest—who doesn’t want to say, “Oh this old thing? I made it.”
Now I just need to stop imagining and start cutting. Might be the perfect weekend project… if I click ‘Buy Now’ before Friday.
