We LOVE upcycling and reusing at Periwinkle

I thought I'd show you a couple of upcycled projects.

First up is the little table in my weaving room.
 I was tired of not being able to see my handspun skeins
 so I came up with this.
A small discarded fishtank
A piece of aluminum framed window
A printer's drawer I picked up at a 2nd hand store.
Voila !


 And here we have the recycled towel rail that I spotted on the back of a camper van at the wrecking yard.
                         It hangs perfectly on the shower door.Almost like it was made for the job !


      Even the cat participates in the recycling around here.
She resides in this reusable paper bag.
 (Thank you Quality Foods !)
