Upcycled Linky Party {13}

Good Monday Morning!  So sorry this Linky Party is off to a late start but it's been a rough week.  My dad had a grand mal seizure late last week and at nearly 64 there's been no history of seizures. So as you can imagine, things have been a little topsy turvy these last few days.  But I am SO ready for a little normalcy and excited to share a few highlights from last week's Upcycled Linky Party starting with this one from the Scribbler Unfocused. 

If you've never painted fabric (or even if you have) you have to see what Ellen did with an upholstered chair whose fabric left a lot to be desired.


And if you're still looking for a few garden ideas, you'll love how the Wooden Bee added a little graffiti to an old tire and turned it into a "flower pot."


I love old license plates and admire all the cool projects that others come up with, I've never taken the plunge myself. So this week's shop feature is this fabulous MANCAVE Wall Art from Sweet Someday:


Now on to the Upcycled Linky Party #13.  Here's the run down on the rules:

1.  Feel free to link up no more than one upcycled tutorial that you created and one upcycled item from your shop each week.
2.  Please don't link up the same items or blog posts as in previous weeks, let's keep it fresh.
3.  Follow Love 2 Upcycle by email or Google connect.
4.  This is a party so socialize!  Visit at least one shared link and leave a meaningful comment or "favorite" it if it is an Etsy shop item.  It would be nice if you followed them as well, but it is not required.
5.  Please keep it family friendly and upcycled!  We reserve the right to remove any links that aren't appropriate.

Upcycled Linky Party {12}

Happy Monday!  I hope your weekend and your Father's Day was fabulous.  If you're not ready to give up the fun times, then we have you're post-weekend party right here!   Let's check out a couple of the cool projects that linked up to last week's Upcycled Linky Party.

I love this reclaimed wood American Flag from the Thrifty Southern Pilgrim...and you should have just enough time to whip one up in time for the Independence Day Celebrations coming up.


If you're an Etsy Shop owner or just love to ship handmade gifts to friends, you'll love this tutorial on making you're own packaging from a paper bag:



And finally, this week's shop feature is this beautiful vintage hankie baby dress from SelkieMum:
