Upcycle Challenge

We will be making 1 gift for our partner.

This is not profile based.

What is your handmade niche? Some of us have that 1 thing that we love to make... maybe you sell them, maybe you just do it for fun.

Dolls, blankets, crochet, jewelry, stationery... etc

Whatever it is... I challenge you to hand make one item for your partner using only upcycled materials.

So for instance if you make jewelry- you use items from unconventional materials... a chain from an old necklace, beads you made from recycled material etc If you sew... upcycled fabric.. be creative but also remember we are producing gifts... so just because we are using "trash" doesn't mean our item should look like trash.

Second...

Use upcycled packaging to package your product as If you were selling it l, or displaying it on a shelf or rack.

Third.

Your wrapping paper, the packaging that you use to mail to your partner and the note you include with the package must also be upcycled/recycled.

So in review... everything in this swap should only use recycled materials.

And please remember that the gift may not be your cup of tea, please rate on the basis that it met swap requirements.

As always I will be vetting my swaps. Have fun and happy swapping.
