Upcycling & Revamping: It's kinda our thing

Here at iLoveToCreate, we love creating new and fab showstoppers for our CHA Summer and Winter Shows! At the same time, we love to reinvent and use what we have on hand to revamp something old into something new again.

Case in point: Cheryl Ball created a rainbow of fab flowers for headbands last winter show using all our colors of Tulip® Fabric Spray Paint™. We wanted to reuse them once again for the summer show, so we put them on stems and arranged them in some pretty Duncan® Ceramic vases!

It was a super easy way to mix it up a bit, but not have to break the bank or put a lot of work into new samples.

So the next time you are bored with something you made, think of how you can add a little twist to it. That tie dye shirt that didn't turn out perfectly? How about cutting it up for rosettes or braiding it to make a necklace or bracelet. Instead of tossing out a ceramics piece that didn't turn out the way you wanted, try smashing it up in pieces to make a cool mosaic frame using Tacky Glue. You just have to think of how you can turn something around and reuse it in a new and creative way!
