Little Red Wagon #550 - Reuse/Recycle

It's Wednesday again and gosh, we are more than half way through the month of May.  All that means it's time for a new Little Red Wagon challenge.  This week I am your hostess and I am looking for any craft/creative project that reuses or recycles something.  Recycled things that come to mind would be string, ribbon, junk mail, candy boxes, folders, cans, file cabinets...I could go on and on.

As for me, we had these ugly, but very solid file cabinets and a need for some new bedside tables.  Thanks to Pinterest and a bit of work from my husband and I (I hope that's OK) here's what happened -

As for me, we had these ugly, banged up but very solid file cabinets and a need for some new bedside tables. Thanks to Pinterest and a bit of work from my husband and I we now have very functional bedside tables (that will hold tons of cardstock!). It was kinda hard to get a good picture, but I think you can see I did an "industrialized" paint job and we recycled some cedar from our local reuse lumbar yard.  


I am looking forward to seeing your up-cycled projects .  Why don't you give our challenge a go this week and head on over to Little Red Wagon and link up. While you're there, be sure to check out the wonderful projects the other Girlfriends have created.

Thanks for popping by.

Aloha,
