Love 2 DIY on the Weekend: The Sunday Funnies

With just a couple of clicks of the mouse as you browse the pages of Etsy you can find so many upcycled finds inspired by the pages of the Sunday Funnies and comic books.  Here are just a few items from Team Upcyclers members:

Mr. Darcy Comic Barrette by bibliobags

Blondie and Dagwood Rebound Journal by Prairie Peasant


Lego Star Wars Metal Container by Art Recycles

If you're feeling particular crafty this DIY weekend, you can hope over to Upcycle Fever's blog and see how she upcycled these clever Comic Shoes with just a few things that most crafters have tucked away in their supply cabinets. And be sure to check out Upcycle Fever on Etsy for other great styles.


Happy DIYing!
