Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
Use up some of your unused scrapbook paper (even if it’s just to make room for new paper to join your stash!) by making some great Valentine’s hearts to hang in your house. Another project that’s great to do with the kids, you can even surprise those you love by hanging tons of gorgeous hearts over their bed or doorway! Using the simple tutorial from M. Writes is a great way to get this project started!
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.
Very pretty, I love hanging things about, I’ve done this with snowflakes this year, now I’ll be doing this in February:)
