Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
In asking around for some great ideas for making crafts out of recycled items, one of my peeps over at Homespun Helpers gave me a link to this great idea she had. When your scented candles get down to their last vestiges, instead of tossing the whole thing thinking it’s done for, simply turn those candles into drawer fresheners! Head to Heather’s blog for the full details!
These adorable egg cups will have all your Easter guests asking how you made them! When you tell them it was simply hot glue they will be astounded. I also bet if you change the color of the “drips” to red these could easily be transformed into a Halloween decoration. Pop on over to the blog Fixasjalv for the tutorial on how to make hot glue Easter egg cups.
Drawer fresheners is a great idea except…when the temperature gets hot, they do get soft and will leave spots in your drawers and get on your clothes. Does this sound like the voice of experience? I do put them in the ash tray of my car. On a hot day when you open the car door, it smells great.
