WHAT'S YOUR INSPIRATION?

As the New Year approaches, here’s a special (and meaningful) way to capture your goals, dreams, and intentions for the year ahead. Best of all? Every part and piece—along with a little creative magic—can be found at my favorite treasure trove: Goodwill.

Upcycle a dressmaker’s mannequin into a show-stopping, heart-pounding Christmas tree.  This one-of-a-kind holiday decoration is made more memorable with repurposed items (also picked up at Goodwill), giving it DIY style, sparkle, and shine. 

Looking for an easy, fun, and oh-so charming DIY project to deck your halls year after year? Upcycle swapped jewelry pieces and Goodwill-found frames to create holiday art!

Who loves dinosaurs? Kids of all ages — and every grown-up who still secretly roars now and then. Pair a thrifted lamp with Goodwill-found dinos to create a light that will never go extinct. 

Today, in honor of Veterans Day, I decided to take action. Armed with a few tools, a lot of heart, and a quick trip to Goodwill, I turned this forgotten corner into a bright, respectful place of remembrance.

Love how the universe works. Sometimes, something broken or discarded gets a second chance—and becomes even more special than it was before.
