DIY Upcycle Crafts Heaven - Our Little #HometalkCraftsExpo

Joanna Johnson
by Joanna Johnson
This August, Melbourne became a recycle DIY heaven of ideas. My visit to the Northern Regards Artisan Market was an exquisite experience which filled all of us with inspiration and desire to use our creative skills and incorporate upcycled, Eco-friendly products to create little beautiful decorations and handmade items. Becoming a part of such unique event was a true delight!
So, did you visit the Artisan Market and did you find it as intriguing and engaging as I did? How would you like to have such events in your city?
As Hometalk is all about sharing delightful ideas on DIY projects, recycle crafts and smart tricks regarding our everyday domestic chores, I would like to know more about what are your favorite projects on which you worked giving all your heart to create something special?
Share your work and let's make a little #HometalkCraftsExpo here!

    Thanks, @Lana Jane Fox ! Your decoupage idea is wonderful and more people need to know about it. Decoupage has been my passion lately and I am pretty sure it is a favorite topic for all of us! :)
