New Upcycle Ideas 755

 

Every Friday, 7 PM through Wednesday 11 PM Pacific

Greetings all!

I hope our American creatives enjoyed their Thanksgiving this past week! Seeing all the pictures online had me craving a turkey dinner… next time I’m celebrating with you! Canada or not.

This past week I shared a super fun project I’ve been wanting to create for at least 2 years… 

DIY Gingerbread Village with 2x4s and stencils

 

Gingerbread Village with 2x4s and stencils

Yup, I finally figured out a way to create a super easy yet adorable gingerbread village using simple 2×4 scraps thanks to a set of stencils designed to fit perfectly! But you don’t have to be a woodworker, we’ve also introduced MDF houses you can use to create ornaments, a banner or even a stand up village! I love how they turned out and it honestly couldn’t be easier.

I’m still working down my long Christmas decor project list, so I hope to share another project or two  next week!

And with that, let’s get super inspired with this week’s upcycled project features from last week’s party… I’m ready to grab some paint, ornaments, cardboard and an old wagon myself…

Old vintage wagon shelf with Christmas decor

 

Vintage wagon Christmas shelf by Lora Bloomquist

Why just hang a shelf when you can revamp an old vintage red wagon to do the job? Plus, the red just spells Christmas charm! Love how this wagon shelf is displaying tony bottle brush trees and other Christmas trinkets! What a sweet way to display a collection!

Stunning holiday storage jars

Whether you’d like to create festive jars holding festive things, or use as hidden storage, this post will give you all sorts of creative ideas on what you can top those lids with! These Christmas jars are adorable… but that truck with the bottle brush trees has stolen my Christmas lovin’ heart! Great way to create a unique gift wrap idea as well!

Upcycled cardboard robin banner and ornaments

 

Cardboard robin ornaments and banner by Pillar Box Blue

Want to decorate for Christmas without it being to blatant? These sweet cardboard robin ornaments with their vibrant red chests can totally pass for Christmas, or all year around! Also shared in the post is what they look like just as ornaments too… which are equally just as adorable!

Abstract hand-painted Christmas ornaments

Want a unique way to tone your ornaments to suit this year’s chosen decor? Grab your paint of choice and try this gorgeous abstract technique! I’m seeing evergreen branches and pinecones in this ornament… what do you see? And that’s the beauty of abstract. You see what you see and you can’t do it wrong! Be sure to visit the post to see them joined together with a wreath!
