Wow! I think that is a really cool idea! If we just think creatively, we can reuse our resources in so many different ways…
Tiffany,
Great article! I love the upcycling idea, especially the Bar on Wheels-very cool!
You can see lots of upcycled products on Etsy. People make gorgeous creations with old cashmere sweaters – either cutting them apart, or unraveling the wool and knitting a new item. Really beautiful stuff.
Upcycling is a great idea and if everyone adopts it, the world will be a far better place to live. Thanks for sharing this. A greener world is a safer one.
Glad you all liked it! Etsy is a great place to shop for vintage and/or upcycled goods. They also are starting to sell products to do upcycling with, so keep your eye out for local vendors.
Here is the Do It Yourself network’s crafts page: http://www.diynetwork.com/topics/crafting/index.html. Although it isn’t specifically upcycling, like Readymade, it has some great ideas that you could turn into upcycle projects.
