Make your long holiday weekend memorable by using treasures picked up at your nearby nonprofit Goodwill retail store.  These DIY projects will create a friendly and inviting place to hang out, bread bread or enjoy relaxing. 

Dress up your outdoor space by upcycling Goodwill-found items into an eye-catching- and ear-catching—windchime.

Students came together to create a mural using items like boxes, bottles, food containers, and other things collected prior to the three-day workshop guided by yours truly. Many of the art supplies were picked up at the recent Art Supply Swap event co-hosted by Finding Your Good, Tim Kime Art, and Relume. Kudos to WIS for inspiring its student body to help our planet and for creating a truly one-of-a-kind mural/group art piece to celebrate Earth. 

Fill your spaces with items you love so your heart sings and your face smiles each time you spend time there. You don’t have to break the bank to give your home a million-dollar look. Simply place DIY pieces alongside Goodwill-found items, then accent with handmade, original art.  

Give your feathered friends the VIP touch when you turn thrifted bottles and bowls into charming, whimsical bird feeders. Not only are you showing love to the birds in your yard, but you are also showing it to Mother Nature by keeping items out of landfills.
