Take a peak at this black vintage chest. It's new purpose as a cozy and informal bedside table adds personality and loads of storage opportunities. Think of all the extra blankets, books or winter sweaters you could store... Image via Likainen Parketti If you're lucky enough to find a vintage wagon, why not turn it into a show stopping bench? I'd certainly love to sit down and tie my shoes here. This would look amazing at the end of a boy's bed or in a library or entry way. If you love this look, get inspired and build your own! Image Unknown Are you drawn to industrial things? Consider aging a clean tin garbage can with some dark wax to achieve your own look. Image via Fresh Home I'm not saying it's practical or comfortable, but it certainly looks cool! Retrofit an old bath tub into a fun reading spot in your playroom! My kids just might read for a few minutes longer..just because. ;) Image via Apartment Therapy What do you do with a crib once the last one has outgrown it? Try re-cycling it and turning it into a desk or credenza for your craft space. I'd love to a wrapping station in mine! Image via Achados Do you have an old bike laying around? Why not turn it into a bathroom sink? It's art and it's functional... just look at that basket and the way used it to store extra hand towels. Image via The Benjamin Collection Consider a painted filing cabinet inspired end table to add interest and loads of functionality. We love that it's on wheels. Makes cleaning those dust bunnies easy peezy! Image via Fresh Home Framed full length mirrors can be expensive. You might already have the materials to make one in your own home! Look how this homeowner turned her boring builders vanity mirror into a glamorous full length dressing mirror on the cheap! We love this conversation piece! Applauses to this homeowner for taking an old filing system and making it the anchor to this room. Oh, the things this could hold! Check your local habitat for humanity stores or on Craigslist for these special finds. Image via BHG Home Depot sells whiskey barrels for $30. If you slice one you can create two projects. An outdoor table and this lovely eclectic rustic mirror.

Upcycling is great. It is an easy, usually affordable way to add a little character to your home and convey a personal style. It’s also a great way to reduce our carbon footprint and use something that we might otherwise throw away or that has lived out its created purpose. Upcycling requires a little thinking outside the box which can sometimes be difficult, especially when it comes to matters of the home but with a little creativity some truly inspired creations can come of it. Some helpful upcycling tips I have learned (in my very limited upcycling career): Upcycling can be more work than if you were just buying whatever it is that you are creating Upcycling can be more expensive (unless you’re really good) than buying whatever it is that you are creating Upcycling can be very rewarding and provide you with a sense of supreme accomplishment If you are new at upcycling, start small (like the leather belt frame picture below) and work your way up to a larger scale project (like this floorboard cabinet) Don’t get discouraged–if you mess up your upcycling project, just upcycle it into something else (Or a lamp. There are tons of upcycling […]
This very well made French provincial chest of drawers, has been refinished from top to bottom. A blended farmhouse blue chalk paint, dark lavender wax and a mixed floral transfer, bring out the beauty of this rare piece. The top is glazed with a driftwood color palette that tie the whole thing together. This is a really solid piece of furniture. Made by Huntley Quality Furniture. It is solid wood all the way through. The hardware is original. The paper lined drawers open and close smoothly. This beautiful piece would complement a boho styled home or a farmhouse decor and many more styles. While vintage pieces are not perfect, they should be appreciated for their unique imperfections. Delivery is included to the 48 states. Shipping is usually arranged within 2 weeks but can take up to 6 weeks. Life is too short to live with ugly furniture. Chest 34x19x47
I found this chest in a thrift store and knew with some paint and maybe a pop of wallpaper behind the doors it could be fabulous. I love the vintage seventies…
