Creative Reuse : What to do with that before you throw it out....

'Creative Reuse - Unique Etsy Finds, Most From the Etsy Recyclers Guild' by RetroChalet

I'm in awe of these artist's abilities to reclaim, repurpose, and reuse certain objects such as these. Whether you're looking for home decor, jewelry, or supplies, these sellers have it all. Most are members of the Etsy Recyclers Guild Team, but a few are guest featured here. Show some love and thank them for keeping these items out of the landfills!
