All throughout the year our Thrift Store Decor Team finds hidden gems at thrift stores, yard sales and even our basements and turns them into something fun and unique.
Some people call it turning Trash To Treasure. Some people call it Thrift Store Makeovers.
Whatever you call it, it's fun and a great way to add stylish decor to your home inexpensively.
Today I'm going to highlight one of my favorite Thrift Store Upcycles from each of our decor team members. Just click on the blue boxes that say "View More Details" to be magically transported to the tutorial for that project!
The rest of the 100 upcycling ideas can be found at the bottom of the post where you see all the little squares. In this section, clicking on the boxes will take you to the full tutorials.
My Favorite Thrift Store Upcycles From The Thrift Store Decor Team - 2022
Window Art With Glass Plates
This is one of my very own projects and has caused quite a stir on social media. It's a project I've wanted to do for so long and just finally got around to making it this year and I'm so glad I did! It uses pressed glass plates from the thrift store and an old window. And currently hangs in my office window as we speak. When the light shines through it in the late afternoon it's magical!

Vintage Washboard Laundry Room Organizer
Carlene from Organized Clutter takes a broken down washboard she found at a thrift store and upcycles it into a fun way to organize clothespins and such in your laundry room.Looking at this would almost make laundry day fun! But seriously, why did they ever call it laundry "day". Every day is laundry day at my house!
