Upcyle Pallets to Sign Boards.

April 29, 2014April 29, 2014 naush

Hello friends ! Since the majority of my visitors are from USA, I hope you guys are enjoying the spring. Bet all your soil beds are ready and the herbs planted already.

Today, I’m sharing a few sign boards, I made, from pallets.

I have a brand-spanking-new silhouette machine which has found its way out of the box and 8months later, I am still no closer to using it than I was, the first time, I pulled it out of its carton 😦 Any guidance, inspiration or ‘push’ will be highly appreciated 🙂

I have free-handed the writing. It was rather difficult becoz I wrote with the sharpies and the wood was not smooth. I cant say, I’m very pleased with them but I liked the ” herb garden” quite a lot.

I am sharing these sign boards with my friends at the following parties here.

Have you upcycled any pallets this week ??

Disturbed Wall Hanging !

March 29, 2011March 29, 2011 naush

Wacky title for a post, eh ? But dont worry, its still me and its still, yet another wall hanging from the Trash to Wallhanging series. Yes, there are many more coming up 🙂

The sentiment is a funny and serious one at the same time, so I focused on the sentiment alone. I wanted to give it a male look thus I have not added any embellishments. The DIGI stamp image is enhanced by the fabulous textures of both the handmade papers which are embossed. Have used a twine to tie up giving a very rough look.

Creative Door Sign.

October 23, 2009February 16, 2011 naush

Although I had initially wanted to make a door sign, I landed up making a cute placard. It is made of very firm plastic paper which is used in covering up lampshades .. ( thats where it came from !! ) Ripped an old round lampshade which was almost dumped !!

It can be given as a pretty gift to a classmate, collegue, neighbour or teacher.

Alittle bit of recyling goes a looong looong way.
