Up-Cycling
How often do you see pre loved items left to gather
dust or thrown onto the garbage heap just because they don’t serve a purpose or
somebody doesn’t need them anymore?
How can you take these things that may seem to you
and other people, pretty stink and boring, and re-craft them to be different, cutting
edge, 21 century items that have been given a new lease of life?
1.
In
the garden-You
have been asked by Peter Jackson to decorate his garden area with up-cycled
items to make it a bit crazy and weird, but still be an epic space at the same
time. For example using old boots or shoes as planter boxes.
2.
Around
the house-There
are heaps of rooms in a house that could be made that a bit cooler and special
when furnished with a touch of up-cycling. For example old pallets made into an
ottoman.
3.
Save
the environment - HELP!!!
There is way too much plastic
clogging up our landfills, coastlines, parks and streets man!!! How can we
re-purpose these items to serve a greater purpose? AND look cool at the
same time. For example plastic bags sewn together to make a stylish shoulder
bag.

Knick Knack Knock-Up (cycle) –
Knick knack –- N. small worthless
objects, especially household ornaments.
Hmmm… “worthless
objects” – yeah right. I am sure that with your superb creative thinking, you
could transform something worthless into something with incredible worth.

Arty Farty Adornments-Today’s clothing and fashion is so 2014 man. How can you re-vamp some of
today’s clothing styles to be made to your own styles? Or use them to create
something totally different?
