Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: Upcyle Spring

Spring is getting closer and closer...YEAH!! Well at least for some of you. Us northerner's have a few more weeks before spring pops out up here. So for those of you who are starting to get a hint of spring it is time to think about shaking off the cobwebs and opening the windows and think about decorating for spring. And where else to find some really neat upcycling ideas than Etsy. So let's take a look and see what we can find.

What a great idea for upcycling those vases we all have sitting around the house and it looks like 4onemore did just that. 




Banners are always nice to have hanging on your walls and look at these great spring colors on the banner from Mumli.




Look at this pretty kitchen towel from TwoGirlsLaughing. It was made from a vintage pillowcase that they made into a kitchen towel. I love the color of this!





People are coming up with lots of ideas these days for Mason Jars and BootsandGus has made these jars into a springy looking chandelier with spring colors. 




So get those thinking caps on and start bringing Spring into your home with upcycled goodies.

Happy decorating!

Colleen :)
