Creative DIY Projects That Turn Trash Into Treasure
Do you love the fun of popping some change in a machine and seeing which prize you get? And then get addicted to trying to get the one prize you want? And then end up with a bunch of plastic gumball containers? Well, here is a fun idea to transform plastic containers into acorns and fill with candy corns and more! Pop on over to the blog My Party Passion for more fun ideas.
I have had the pleasure of being the Recycled Editor at Craft Gossip for over 15 years. I can’t think of a better job than to immerse myself in a community of creatives that focus on sharing their eco-creations with others. I have learned so much and I hope all of you readers have as well. I want to thank the amazing team that has given me this opportunity and I wish them all the success in the world as they continue to produce great content here that educates and inspires creativity as I feel “making” is vital to heath and well being.
I will still be sharing my recycled creations that are primarily art on my personal social media – please feel free to follow me in Instagram @StefanieLGirard and on Facebook Stefanie Girard if you want to keep up with me 🙂
This is my latest art installation “Daily Practice, The Power of Creativity, (Zen and the Art of grenade making)” . This piece consisting of 365 1/4 porcelain grenades that took 5 years to make. It was given an award at the 2025 art show produced by The Fine Art Federation.
It is simply a magical thing to transform one thing into another in an unexpected way.
Thank you Craft Gossip!
Keep creating with recycled things everyone.
Happy Earth Day….every day 🙂
