samulli upcycle art repurpose reuse

I’ve got some cool links for you today. Get creative and make a lil space in the Land Fills while you’re at it!

1) Repurpose your old crayon bits (Great fun for the kids!)

2) These lamps made from plastic trash rock! Find photos at the artist’s etsy shop and the How – To at her blog!

3) At Storque Handmade Life you’ll find a whole slew of creative uses for “junk”!

4) How about some lawn furniture? A great chair made from a pallet!

5) Maybe turn old clothes into stylish new fashions? Girl Reconstructed has some great ideas!

6) This Momma to be is making adorable onesies out of vintage T-shirts.

7) Some awesome ideas (and some instruction) for some very chic wall art made of magazine pages. I like these a lot, and the concept could be applied in several ways. Hmmm….

8) I can think of many ways to combine these newspaper spirals… hot plates are only the beginning!

9) Oh, oh!!! This is a recycled recycled idea! Remember those chevron style chains made from stick chewing gum wrappers? (I had one that was at least 20 feet long!) How about using starburst candy wrappers to make them? Bright colors and too much fun!

10) These Spa Slippers made from an old pair of beach thongs and a towel are what I call some tootsie comfies!

11) Cookie Sheet Calender, or Advent Calender.

12) This paper yarn, spun on an old fashioned drop spindle, might be even cooler than plarn! I gotta try it!

13) I would SO do this if my ceilings weren’t so darned low! Check out this hanging pot rack made out of a bicycle wheel! Image here, How – To here.

Well, that was fun! Head on over to Thursday Thirteen and tell um Thornie sent cha… err… check out a whole bunch of TT-ers!

Peace, out!
