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

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

I liked mine to be a little bit more organic

I hope you look at your packaging a little differently
