Around our home we often try to re-purpose outdated or impractical items. I enjoy finding new uses for things that might otherwise end up in the garbage, like this beautiful vintage wooden toolbox or this sweet highchair. Another favorite activity of mine is popping into our local thrift stores to see if I can find a one-of-a-kind item that someone else simply doesn’t have use for anymore.
So I was thrilled to join three of my incredibly talented friends, AKA Design, Design Dining Diapers and A House and a Dog for a new series called, Trash to Treasure.
Each month we will give new life to an item that you might think belongs in the trash. I hope this series will inspire you to use your creativity and imagination; dig around your attic or basement or pop over to your local donation store to see if you can find something to re-purpose.
Watercolor is very trendy right now. It is popping up in everything from art to graphic design to home decor. And it’s a trend I am really loving.
