A dreary and drab dinette set gets a dramatic and divine transformation. This old set—likely headed for the dumpster—is now ready to take the spotlight in your place with its bold black and gleaming gold. All this DIY project took was some vision, some paint, and some elbow grease to remove the grease layer and give it a new life and look.

Take an exciting transformational journey by upcycling a pair of vintage suitcases into one totally unique accent table.  These Goodwill-found suitcases go from lost in the attic to found in your favorite room because they make a table that is whimsical and useful. 

The world is your DIY oyster, so have fun transforming the world—or at least a globe—in a creative and memorable way!

This colorful, funky and unique globe is now a totally one-of-a-kind art piece!  Place it on a credenza by some tall vases under an interesting, framed print.  Set it next to your sofa for a creative conversation piece.  

Inspired by the City of Lights, Paris’ nickname, this charming lamp had lots going for it before it was upcycled. Some French flair took it from fine to “fantastique.”  It is now truly blooming!
