Twine Wrapped Tin Can And Top Diy
By: Gail Griffin from purplehuesandme.com

"It's fun to recycle ordinary household items like tin cans that you've rescued from trash, especially in these trying times! I created this twine wrapped tin can and top especially for the "Entry for Stay Home and Craft Challenge." I love collecting tin cans and finding new ways to re-use them! It's unbelievable all the things you can make using cans. Some very useful and decorative like this wrapped can with a top! Perfect to hold,store or hide craft supplies - or whatever you want! And the best part, you probably have everything you need to make one! "

Upcycled Lily Sculpture Made From Used Guitar Strings
By: Jessie Agnew from iamsewcrazy.com

"Look at this beautiful lily sculpture, made from old, worn-out guitar strings! I save all of my old guitar strings, and when I realized I had four sets of them lying around, I decided to turn some trash into treasure during the COVID quarantine. I grabbed some wire and jump rings I had on hand, and made this metal sculpture. If you play guitar or know someone who does, you can probably get your hands on some worn-out strings for free. Old guitar strings make fabulous sculptures, because just one set will have different sizes, colors, and even textures to the different strings. And who doesn't love taking something that was heading to the landfill, and upcycling it to make a stunning piece of art!"

Bookcase Update
By: Betsy Burnett from aimhappy.blogspot.com

"When stuck at home due to Covid-19 it's easy to become tired with your surroundings. What's a gal to do when she wants to freshen up her bedroom and has no money and let alone no place to shop? Check the basement (or attic) for cast-offs and then transform an old bookcase into a nightstand by giving it a facelift with chalk paint and stencils. Best yet, tuck a message inside for your "future you" to remind you that "You are loved!"
