Repurposing: Teapot Lamp

This wonderful old teapot was no longer useful for drinking out of. We also had a cracked lamp that despite its imperfection, still worked. After drilling a couple of holes in the teapot I took the lamp cord out of the cracked lamp and strung it through the teapot.

Repurposing: Bon Bon Magnets

Happy Valentine's Day!


This empty box of chocolates made for a wonderful display for these decorative bon bon magnets made from buttons!



I came across a couple of board games that were missing pieces. I glued little magnets on the back of the game pieces to make some unique and whimsical magnets!

These adorable hangings were once vintage cards and postcards. They are decorated with glittered ric rac and red tinsel trim.


They would make for a great little gift for Valentine's Day!


Or maybe just decoration around your home?

Upcycling: Valentine's Day Paint Can

Isn't this red paint can adorable? It would make a great gift container for Valentine's Day!


I came across this plain red paint can and after a little bit of decoupaging and adding red tinsel for trim it's ready to grace any shelf for this love filled holiday!
