8 unique upcycling ideas

Is there anything better than taking something from trash to treasure? I hate the idea of waste, so taking broken or unwanted items and bringing them back to life is near and dear to my heart. Oh, and my wallet! Saving money is always a bonus, but creating something unique for your home is a great reward. All of these ideas take something old and find a whole new use for them, usually something totally unique that has nothing to do with the original form.

METAL DRAWER TO CHALKBOARD.... all you need is a little paint and sand paper to transform a curbside find into an industrial style chalk board.

Such great unique upcycle ideas! Several of these are new to me - and I thought I'd seen them all!

    What a fantastic way to store my cooking trays, what a great idea. I think any magazine rack would work. Thank you.
