Lindsay, who blogs at Lindsay & Drew, has been making over a nursery for a client. The client wanted to keep using the crib she already had, which was just a little worn. See the teeth marks?

Kerryanne–who blogs at Shabby Art Boutique–points out, “Christmas decorating doesn’t have to be expensive! Sometimes you just have to look outside the box and repurpose thrifted objects.” She demonstrates just how she does that with her own thrift finds, starting with this wooden plate that rang in at a whopping 88 cents.

At Pondered Primed Perfected, Sherry had this plain, wooden CD box that had been sitting around her house for a while. It wasn’t getting much use as a CD holder anymore, so she decided it was time to give it a new job.

You are going to have a hard time believing that a humble paper bag was the beginning of these pretty Christmas decorations from Aimee at It’s Overflowing. But it really is a simple shopping bag from the local grocery store that Aimee recycled to become the cone base to form decorative pine trees.

Ashley, from Cherished Bliss admits that, “I have LITERALLY carried around this pallet to 3 different houses. One of those moves being from Texas to Wisconsin.” She finally used it to make something that she’d wanted for quite a while…holiday charger plates!

A blogs at Makin’ My Apartment Home, and loves to bring home curbside finds to transform. Her latest project came home via her teenage daughter, who found it on the neighbors’ curb. The old dresser definitely needed some TLC.

Here’s another gorgeous rescue from Ama of Ohoh Blog. Ama had an old cabinet that wasn’t very tall. She realized it was the perfect height for her little girl to used as a dresser.

At What’s Ur Home Story, Vidya has a great way to dress up pine cones for Christmas decor. If you have a yard with pine trees or live near a park or nature preserve that has them, then pine cones will be free and plentiful at this time of year.
