Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
These gorgeous collages were made using junk mail that comes into all our houses every day. This is such a great idea for holiday presents if you’ve got an artistic streak (which most of us do!) – your friends will love their new art, and you’ll be able to reuse some often over-looked materials!
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.
Great idea! Love it!
Very cool!
Oh man, SO much better than throwing it in the trash…
