New Upcycle Ideas 784

Every Friday, 7pm through Wed, 11 pm pacific

Greetings all!

Finally… after staring at septic system connections in my backyard for YEARSSSSS, I finally had enough. A few weeks back, I told my son, “We’re getting a load of soil!” and off we went, filling up the back of the truck. Then I pulled out every container I could plant in. But even when I was stalled because I didn’t have a planter I wanted, I built one from reclaimed wood for FREE.

I’m squealing! Because not only did the grande finale happen, the garden is positively thriving! Now I’m glad this post was delayed because you get to see that too!

Upcycled planters in a raised vegetable garden

 

Part 1 – How to build an easy raised garden bed for growing tomatoes

Part 2 with video tour – Creative ideas for an upcycled container vegetable garden

Friends, it doesn’t even look like the same backyard. Please come and visit both posts to see all the hidden treasures! From the wheelbarrow I JUST landed, to the planter box I built for free for my row of tomatoes, to the DIY stepping stones formed in party tray containers, to the fun and easy way the tomatoes were staked, these posts showcase that if you can’t plant down, here’s how you can plant UP! In ANY space you have.

This move alone has triggered a chain reaction to all things garden this year. I feel unstoppable…  without a real budget for any of it. I’m pulling from creativity, finding stuff, separating my own plants or landing some for free, and on the list goes. This garden machine will not be stopped! Until I overdue it here and there and end up at the chiro’s office. LOL

Oh!! And I just landed a massive rickety old wood bench today from a school yard… so that’s going to become a pretty feature coming soon!

But now it’s time to get even more inspired with these incredible upcycled project features from last week’s party… because I need to rest before my next big thing. haha

And a huge thank-you goes out to the creatives who share here, because there would be no party without you! Wait until you see these…

Patriotic American flag woven through an antique grate

 

Woven American flag on an antique window grate by A Pretty Happy Home

If you haven’t been following Annisa while she works on her historic home, you are missing out. Every gem she finds on the property, she flips it from a puzzle piece into an absolute keepsake with meaning attached. And such was the case when they removed a metal window grate, turning it into a beautifully woven American flag. Stunning. This MUST be viewed up close!

Create gorgeous flower art on a glass panel

 

Glass panel pressed flower art by Steph Creates Things

Wish your flowers could last just a little longer? Perhaps creating the pressed flowers look on a picture frame will be right up your alley! But don’t worry if you don’t have real pressed flowers, because this post shares a different way you can do it without the wait! This is so pretty!

Incredible faux pomegranate mosaic

 

Faux pomegranate mosaic by A Crafty Mix

Michelle doesn’t just make projects… she crafts masterpieces requiring intricate techniques she so readily teaches in every one of her detailed tutorials. And such is the case, blending mosaic and cloisonne into a faux pomegranate that will positively mesmerize you once you see all involved! What a gorgeous piece to display!

How to marble plain buttons

 

DIY water marbled buttons by Fresh Vintage By Lisa S

Why stick with plain buttons when you can marbleize them? You heard that right! Wow! Just wow. Grab your button collection and a standard beauty item I KNOW you have on hand! Oh my gosh. Each one is an amazing work of art!

Thrifted tiki game turned wall art

 

Summer thrifted game as tiki wall art by Homeward Found Decor

Deb loves Hawaii. However when a trip was delayed, she decided to make Hawaiian accents a permanent part of her home. This $3 piece was revamped to suit her own home, bringing a feeling of Aloha and FUN into her everyday life! Missing my own Hawaiian stomping grounds, I’m so in LOVE with this concept. Plus, look at how the surroundings blend right in! I’m inspired.
