    It sounds like you might be looking for some ideas of what you can upcycle that you may already have, on hand, at home. A very simple one is to take old tin cans that have clean cut,non sharp edges, wash them and let them dry completely. Once Dry, take a nail and a hammer and tap little holes all over the can making a general design or you can do something a little more intricate and make a pattern...like a flower with petals. Once you're done with that... Using any beautiful color that makes you happy, spray paint the entire outside of the can with the paint color of your choosing. Once paint dry... use poly acrylic spray to seal your new upcycle project and then place a lit candle inside or you can use a flameless candle. If you do several of these...they can be a nice display, in the center of a table or outside... during a barbecue.

    You can upcycle old tin cans and turn them into candle holders for the deck or porch... If you use citronella based scented candles it will also help keep the mosquitoes away.

    Love to help, but not sure what item or items you want to reuse or repurpose. Please post either a picture or description of an older item you want to repurpose.
