I've always been very creative... from self taught hair stylist to graphic design to landscaping with plants and cooking, my creative outlets have evolved with me.
There is no greater thrill than having someone pay real money for something you've made with your own hands and heart.
Here are a few of my upcycles....
I made my own chalk paint and upcycled these cast offs...

shabbified brass candlestick holders
boring brown wood is transformed into purple and white nursery decor
an old wooden jewelry box is given new life with some gray chalk paint and wax
Here are some of my pieces that were created from thrift store clothing and repurposed linens. I made the flowers by felting sweaters or recycled clothing.
I traded this altered dress for business cards!
antique linens, felted wool flowers vintage buttons = a beautiful sash
Hand torn gift ribbon = 100% recycled cotton
recycled leather jackets, vintage linens and broken jewelry is transformed into gypsy cowgirl cuffs
I LOVE this hat. If it does not sell soon, it is MINE!
Save our planet! Buy me!!!

Isn't he so sweet for nursery decor or woodland wedding tablescape?
I love the candle sticks you made and that sash is gorgeous! Great pinterest ideas too, the doilies covering a canvas? Genius.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathy! I have a ton of doilies and one of these days I'll upcycle them...there are so many clever options!
