Leslierahye's 3rd Annual Earth Day BLOG HOP - April 22nd

Welcome to

 the Leslierahye's 3rd Annual 

Earth Day Blog Hop

What this means we recycle or upcycle everyday products

Each designer is to come up with a creative way to upcycle crafts

from a cereal box, can of soup to old shoes to scraps of paper, etc.

I try to recycle and recreate as much as possible.

I've been wanted to create this wall decor since last year

and finally was able to do it and boy did I have fun creating this is easy peasy

You are able to find the instructions on Pinterest and YouTube

SPOONS

you can either spray them first then cut or cut then spray its up to you

and also the effect you are trying to accomplish

I cut my spoons first

you can either start from the edge of the board or from the center 

edge of the mirror

Stagger the spoons in each row

STEP 8

I liked mine to be a little bit more organic

Now to create one for my bestie

I think she would love it - in teal color of course!

I hope you look at your packaging a little differently

when you are about to through it out

Let's continue to recycle - upcycle
