New Upcycle Ideas 823
Every Friday, 7pm through Wed, 11 pm pacific
Greetings, friends!
This past week was a busy one with the cat and son getting nearly all my attention. And although I didn’t feel very productive, I’ll pat myself on the back anyway, since I did share this new project in the garage I’m SO thrilled with!
Old file cabinet garden tool storage
Garden tool storage with an old file cabinet
I am officially the proud owner of an old file cabinet turned epic garden tool storage setup which works AMAZING I might add! This space was always such a mess. The cabinet makes the tools stand up, and the hooks are perfection so I can grab only the hand tools I want! And it’s easier than you may think… I feel so fancy when I garden now!
On to the party! What have you upcycled lately, creative friends? Link it up! To start things off, here’s some fabulous upcycled project features from the last week’s party…

Whimsical bark and mushroom planter made from a broken mug
Broken mug mushroom planter by A Crafty Mix
If you’re like me, a broken mug would lead to simply chucking it out. But most certainly not THIS round! My goodness… check out this woodland vibe fantasy planter… How?? Well, check out the post and you’ll soon see what creates every single square inch of this masterpiece! From a bark covered mug growing moss with a mushroom umbrella, you WILL be spellbound.

Antique yellow spring accents for a front porch by Petticoat Junktion
If you want an instant punch of spring for your front porch, this post takes you on a full tour of how to group a few yellow antiques to create a colourful and whimsical spring look! I love how this one is pulled together! So if your plain porch needs a little something, scan this post to get inspired to pull out all the golden oldies you have and just play!
Realistic spring leaves on branches using crepe paper
Crepe paper spring leaves on branches by Homeward Found Decor
I need to get in the habit of spring cleaning like Deb. She pulls stuff out, then said stuff magically falls to the floor in groups, inspiring her to make a new project with said fallen debris. Which lead to these delightful branches with crepe paper leaves giving all the spring vibes possible. If you visit the post, the closeup will having you believing the leaves are REAL. I LOVE this project.
Carrot garland made with egg cartons
Egg carton carrot garland by Little Vintage Cottage
Speaking of crepe paper, this round you’ll want to team that up with an egg carton to make this delightful spring carrot banner! Isn’t it the sweetest? Oh, but that’s not all. Go see what was made with a broken bunny ornament as well in this post! SO fun!

Thank you so much for including my crepe paper faux leaves, Donna! (If it makes you feel any better, today I was setting up a simple photo and spilled potting soil all over my office credenza and studio floor!🙃 My Muses like to yank my chain as much as they like to inspire me!)
I love your metal file cabinet garage organizer – what a smart solution!
