Happy Earth Day! How are you celebrating Earth Day? Since I live in a condo and don’t own any outdoor space, I can’t plant a tree. But in honor of Earth Day, I have decided to gather up my ten most recent upcycle projects.
Updating old, unwanted items, and using up scraps is my small way of protecting the environment.
Upcycling this old record player not only saved it from a landfill, it saved us a nice chunk of change since we didn’t buy a new bedside table instead!
I used up some wood scraps and unused drawer pulls for this rustic wooden tray. My husband loves this tray! He uses it every day!
This old rocker was certainly destined for the landfill. You gotta see it now!
This two-tiered tray is probably my most favorite repurpose/upcycle project ever!
And this high chair rescue is very, very special to me.
A dated old desk gets a new life as a vanity.
And this old desk serves a different purpose also. It is now a kitchen island!
Another favorite of mine are these sweater pillows. I just love the bright and fun colors. And the buttons . . . I adore them!
This old, out-of-style basket got a new “old” look with liming wax. You just have to see the “after“.
This upcycle/repurpose project started out as a cupboard door from the ReStore.
There you have it. My ten most recent upcycled/repurposed projects in honor of Earth Day!
Thanks for the inspiration! Eco-conscious DIY projects are my absolute favorites. I have a box of old shirts and sweaters that I love but don’t fit anymore so I’m definitely going be making some of those pillows this weekend.

This was such an inspirational post. I have been looking for some DIY upcycling ideas when I stumbled upon your blog. And this has got my creative juices flowing. I agree with you that upcycling is more earth friendly than recycling since it gives a new lease of life to an item that would have got wasted otherwise. Our eco stores australia is all about reducing waste through different aspects of life by taking small steps.
This term most commonly refers to products that contribute to green living or practices that help conserve resources like water and energy. Eco-friendly products also prevent contributions to air, water and land pollution. I have been passionate about the environment, which drove me to receive a degree in environmental science.Eco friendly Promotional gifts
