New Upcycled Projects to Make 610
.
Every Friday, 7 PM through Wednesday 11 PM Pacific
Where did the week go? I have no idea.
And the only thing I have to show for it is a clean closet. I’ve started cleaning following the Marie Kondo order of things once again, sharing short and sweet cleaning inspiration on Instagram stories, so be sure to follow along HERE if you need some inspiration in all that too!
Other than that, I did start a project but lost steam and there it sits unfinished. It takes me a big to get going in the new year and it appears the start of this one is no different. Are you taking a bit to jump start as well?
So NEXT week I plan to share a couple posts with just stuff I have been doing. May as well just share it if I’m doing it anyway, right?!
Welcome to my no rhyme or reason world.
Glad you came through though, because these project highlights from last week’s party post are amazing, and will most certainly inspire you in a good, creative direction!

Hi Dona, I loved that you chose my DIY. I was very happy. Have a nice weekend xoxo
Thanks for always sharing your creativity here Elsa! That wreath is so unique and beautiful!
I have a hard time getting a jump start every year too Donna; still feel like I’m in vacation mode! No rhyme or reason is the best way to approach it! Can’t wait to see what you’ve been up too.
Thanks for featuring our J&P coats sewing box 🙂
My pleasure Sara! That sewing box is such a neat makeover, productive too! Yesterday I made myself go into my workshop and dig out. LOL Cleaning seems to come easier. Maybe it’s because I need to clean my workspaces first, so there’s that!
Thank you for featuring my ring holder Donna and for hosting the party each week!
Tania
Tania, i just LOVE your ring holder project! such a brilliant idea – and the color of that velvet is to die for <3
Thank you 🙂
Thank YOU Tania, that is such a cool project!
Thank you for hosting the party!
Thanks for stopping by Virginia! It’s always fun to check out the new creativity, isn’t it?
Oh gosh, I hear you, Donna. I’ve had the same two projects on my workbench for almost two weeks. Happy New Year and hope the creative juices get flowing again for both of us real soon.
Oh dear… if I leave mine after even a week, I change my mind. Hope you pull through this one! haha
I think I’m just in a cleaning mode and don’t ‘need’ anything quite yet, which I generally discover during the cleaning mode. Plan set! LOL
thank you so much for featuring my silly sips project, Miss Donna! i hope they make your readers smile (but they should be forewarned that looking at them causes cravings for hot chocolate!!!!)
and oh, ,y friend, can i relate to where you are right now…. i’ve been so overwhelmed and teetering on burnout that i had to just stop for awhile. the beginning of a new year usually invigorates me, but not this year. i’ve shifted into ‘maintenance’ mode around home and am getting things accomplished while i give my creativity a rest for a bit. (i still have ideas and am jotting them down, but the making/sharing part is on a sabbatical.) sometimes i think a break is the only way to honor ourselves and renew our energy – we can’t be running at top speed ALL the time, so give yourself grace and everything you need right now <3
Deb, your sweater creations just get more unique! This one’s so adorable. Those marshmallows though…
And I admire how you just pull out when you need to. Those who work from home have to become very mindful of rest and time off too as it’s all too easy to keep going. Then again, when your hobby is creating anyway… I clearly have no good answer here. haha
I miss a Maui kinda rest. Hopefully one day soon.
Thank you so much for hosting 🙂
