Supplies for Upcycling

I thought a destash/supplies thread would be cool- I'm always looking for fun stuff to turn into other stuff.....

And I just listed a ton of destash vintage fabric and stuff I thought some of my teamies would want!

I priced it all at bargain basement prices!

Re: Supplies for Upcycling

{sound of crickets, eh? lol} I loved my destash from you! <3 Still trying to get time to turn my ideas into reality, but I can't pass up more of these remnants~ adding to cart right now!! Thanks!

BTW, Great idea for a thread~ Just a reminder though also, if you have free stuff you can also use the freeupcycle.proboards.com site we have and trade out goods for shipping costs only like you are here!

Re: Supplies for Upcycling

Sometimes the best source of scrap is yourself! I made the festive art from cast off metal scraps I had left over from another project.

Re: Supplies for Upcycling

We list our destash supplies monthly so others can use it. We also get sock scraps from another etsy shop, littlebunnytutus. She sells to me by the pound and we use them for our Upcycled arm warmers.

Re: Supplies for Upcycling

If anyone knows a way to upcycle child safe prescription bottles, I can send you plenty. I have washed them up, but have never found a project to use them on. If interested, drop me a convo, and qty you'd want.

Re: Supplies for Upcycling

Great thread!

We've been re-organizing the studio and de-cluttering the past two weeks. I just updated our reclaimed DIY hardware collection as well as our wine corking supplies. :)
