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 have posted other recycled cardboard sculpture crafts but today’s really caught my eye for two reasons. The first is the fun way simple patterns created on the surfaces really made this look modern and fun. The second was using a tp tube as the base. The combo of the ovals and the tp tube just went together nicely. Pop on over to the blog Artful Parent to see more about how to make painted patterned recycled cardboard and TP tube sculptures.
Great idea! Love it!
Very cool!
Oh man, SO much better than throwing it in the trash…
