Upcycled Tie – Statement Necklace

by the upcycler

This tie is made as a statement necklace – I think it would look amazing over a crisp white button-down for a twist on a traditional office suit.

Love this – Found it at greeneggsnhamm.

Dictionary Art

by the upcycler

This is such a great idea for upcycling old dictionaries, textbooks and sheet music.

I founds this idea on rufflesnadstuff.com – make your own or cheat like crazy and buy it on ETSY.

In this case – either is perfectly acceptable!
