Goodwill-found canvases and repurposed promotional banners are upcycled into art pieces while building community. 

A Goodwill-found mirror gets a totally cosmic transformation using Mid-Century Modern design as inspiration. This easy DIY project pays homage to the design elements found in round wall clocks and mirrors of the 1950’s. It also uses repurposed items to honor today’s focus of being good stewards of our planet.

Give a rattan-framed mirror a cheerful, colorful new look using spray paints. Help this curly piece to grow from fine to flowering and from acceptable to awesome. 

This stylish bar cart will look great in any decorative style, given its nice lines and lovely details.  Arrange it in your place then add interesting and eye-catching accessories also picked up at Goodwill for a buck or two.  The beautiful decanter set featured here was also picked up at Goodwill, and its design, as well as gold and black tones, made it the perfect decorative accessory.

No need to put on the brakes for this easy and unusual DIY project.  Take a boring beat-up bike and move it into the fast lane with colorful spray paints and racing stripes.
