Wonderful wood

Jun 30, 2013



This weekend has been great! We've spent a lot of time home, which has let me also some time to create new things. As couple of times before, the Jake & Maya collective's Trash 2 Treasure competition inspired me to create some new things for home. This month it was all about wood. I wanted to upcycle things I already had in hand at home, and here are the results:

First, I've been dreaming 'bout a relaxing and colourful outdoor space, so I decided to craft this wooden wind chime/mobile. It's made out of wood scraps which and an embroidery loop that had lost it's inner part. The metallic chains are recycled as well. Now it's chiming happily in our garden!

The second design is a small coatrack out of old wooden spools and some scrap wood. It can also be used on a desk to display favourite books and notebooks. It's painted with water-soluble eco-marked paint.

So, once again this competition ispired me to upcycle unused things I already had. Go to see other entries right here!

Tässäkin kuussa Jake & Maya Collectiven upcycling- kilpailu onnistui inspiroimaan minua. Tänä viikonloppuna sain valmiiksi sekä tuulikello/mobilen että naulakon kierrätetystä puutavarasta, jota jo kotoa löytyi. Hyödyllinen viikonloppu siis! Ja olipa taas mukava inspiroitua valmiista aiheesta. Menkääpä katsomaan muut osallistujat täältä, hop!
