A Repurposeful Tuesday?  What is the world coming to?!

Upcycled wall art has been on my little mind for quite a while.
The only way to purge it?  Well, post it, of course.

Sorry the picture is blurry but you get the idea - a pack of antique
playing cards was mounted inside an old window and trimmed out
with a vintage tape measure.  Ingenious!

Who says wall art can't be useful?  This old window, coupled

Wall art can spark fond memories - this is the grill
of an old Volvo framed with antique barn wood.


Tip:  Surprise your spouse with a unique one-of-a-kind gift.
Go to a salvage car yard and look for a grill, steering wheel
or door like the kind from your love's first car.

Antique mirrors provide a patina that can't be
duplicated in any other type of art.

If you're considering a purchase of a wall hanging for your home,
take a risk and step outside the box with repurposing.
After all, normal is so over rated!
