Creative DIY Projects That Turn Trash Into Treasure
These toilet paper tube stars are covered in colored paper but I bet they would look cool painted too. Pop on over to the blog Recycle Art for the tutorial on how to make dimensional stars out of recycled tp tubes. Get started now saving up the tp tubes and you can decorate your Christmas tree with lots of them.
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.
