Glad I could make these with beads and superglue and give it new life . I thrifted the plates that had no cups with them.

How to create a piece of art from my late husband’s favorite shoes?

Post image
74 Upvotes

Long story short, my husband suffered an unexpected anoxic brain injury 3 weeks ago so we are in the process of letting him go. In cleaning out our things, I have kept his favorite pair of shoes out. I’m all for the maximalist/dopamine type of art and decor and would LOVE to create something sentimental that also fits into the fun category with these shoes. Any ideas? Not even sure where to begin but I love repurposing things and I know he would be honored if I created something fun out of one of his favorite pieces of clothing!

My Sister is working on painting this little town! It's a joint effort between my Dad and Sister to make these! They like to recycle wood into these houses! My Dad saved a bunch of deck boards that a contractor was getting rid of from replacing a deck. So they have lots of deck boards to recycle and turn into houses! What do you think of them?

Twist ties and braces

Ive been saving up twists ties from groceries for so long and have so many. Didn’t know what i would use them for but they’re finally coming in handy. just got braces and had a nightmare of a time trying to floss with those super floss the dentist gave me. So i stripped the paper off the twist ties and tied the floss to the end of it. It’s so much easier to get my floss under the wire. Hopefully people with braces will find this useful

Dear creative people, how can i repurpose this, styrofoam from washing machine box. I'm not creative enough to think what to do with it. I do need some kind of organizer but i can't brain it.

Garbage or opportunity? NSFW

Somehow started collecting these years ago with the idea of covering my walls in them (it was high school give me a break) but obviously my taste has changed, even if it’s a silly craft I am trying to figure out how I can reuse them and avoid throwing them out. Any suggestions? Very weird plastic material, give me your silliest ideas! Not looking for it to look professional in the end anyways 😂😂

My dell monitor crapped out so I used a cheap Temu, shocking I know, podium i was going to use in classroom for the Frankenstein you see here. It' also has adjustable height feature but it's not heavy enough, like monitor, to stay in position.

my partner wanted to buy a table to go behind the couch... I came up with this myself!

Just flip upside down and that's it. Our couch is thick enough that they dont move AT ALL.

Idk if anyone has ever posted this but I was so proud we didn't buy something AND made use of 5+ year old shelves we stored away.

Hope this helps reuse old ledges or shelves!

replaced two wobbling hunter fans in the bedrooms last weekend. instead of tossing the blades in the bulk trash pile, i unscrewed the brackets and slotted them vertically between the 2x4 studs along my workbench. kept my scrap wood sorted and did not cost a dime.
