Old is new again. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. These are the tenets of upcycling: taking a product that is old, used or not wanted and repurposing it for another use. Add ornaments, cut up, saw, refinish and retouch. 

For budget-conscious families and cash-strapped households, it may be a better option to upcyle to save pennies. Pinterest is a perfect go-to for ideas. Check out these links to places where you can learn to upcycle over 200 items!
