Greetings all!
I have the cutest upcycled winter project to share!
Stacked glass bowl snowman craft
Thrifted glass bowl snowman craft for winter decor
Some collected thrift store bowls turned into an adorable snowman couple that turned out so cute! The glass resembles ice and illuminates so nicely in the evenings! Plus, it can stay out all winter long! Get my tips on the blog and see how I staged them!
The rest of the Christmas decorating in the house is coming along slowly which is typical, since I need the decorations to stage my projects first! Ha! As long as there’s slow movement forward, I’ll just be pleased with my Christmas projects progress thus far!
I even took a short break to gut and paint my studio work table since the mess and chaos was just over the top and I needed a moment of zen. Feeling a little ahead of all the deeper cleans to come feels good!
So let’s party and get inspired with this week’s upcycle project party features from last week’s party… then onto the new linkups!

Creating a corrugated texture from cardboard
Corrugated faux metal Christmas tree by A Crafty Mix
If you’re into texture like this decadent corrugated faux metal Christmas tree, this project is for you! It teaches you not only how to make this amazing tree, but also how to get this unique corrugated look from any cardboard piece you have on hand! It’s like an all new craft supply you didn’t know you had!
DIY pipe cleaner Christmas trees

This isn’t your typical pipe cleaner project. These pipe cleaner Christmas trees share an elegant twist to an old school craft supply. Wow! Isn’t this fuzzy effect amazing? They look like felt fabric! Learn how to make your own!
Vinyl placemat cone Christmas trees
Mid mod vinyl placemat Christmas trees by Homeward Found Decor
You’ve seen cone trees before, but have you seen them made with vinyl placemats?! What a fabulous idea, which would also be weather resistant for outdoors too! Love this Mid Mod vibe that definitely gives a super fresh new vibe to festive decor!
DIY candy tin Christmas ornament
Candy tin Christmas ornament by Steph Creates Things
If you recycle any tuna tin cans or candy tins, you too can create this adorable shadow box style Christmas ornament with a mini festive scene inside! This Christmas trailer is adorable! With endless possibilities, what story would your shadow box ornament tell?

Thank you so much for adding my candy tin Christmas ornament to the featured list. I appreciate it so much.
Thank you so much for the feature! I truly appreciate it. I hope your holiday season is off to a great start!
I’ve been ‘liking’ your glass snowman project post all over the place, Donna – you did such a great job of making cute AND elegant snow people!
Thank you so much for including my Mid-Mod Cone Trees in your feature – I just linked up my second version of trees made from vinyl placemats, and hope they make you smile too! (They make me think of the old 60’s/70’s Rankin-Bass stop-motion animated holiday specials, like Rudolph and Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town – which does a lot to put me in a holiday mood!)
