Before throwing them out, consider an upcycling project. Make statement pieces by folding newspapers or creating origami stars to hang from the ceiling. Seal your project with spray on sealant and add a touch of glitter or paint for effect. The result is an eye-catching decoration that costs little to make.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use antique containers.<\/strong> It seems like old baskets, crates, and other containers are in high demand. If you come across one in your explorations, their uses in home d\u00e9cor are virtually endless. Secure a clean and open container to the wall for use as a picture frame or to hold towels and knickknacks. You can also add several together to make a bookshelf or wine rack with just the right vintage flare.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Keep those old bottles.<\/strong> Vintage soda bottles and mason jars are another versatile decorating staple. You can repaint the containers and use them as flower vases or candle holders. Find a tutorial for cutting glass, and you can turn your favorite specimens into one-of-a-kind drinking glasses.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Think before you throw out old furniture.<\/strong> Unless the piece has to be reupholstered or it&#8217;s not made out of solid wood, you have the perfect opportunity to add value to the piece. Refinish, paint, or distress wooden furniture for a brand new look at a fraction of the cost for the same item new. Consider the other furniture in your home so it can complement your current d\u00e9cor. Involve your family or friends in the process, and step back to admire your work when it&#8217;s done.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Paint ugly upholstery.<\/strong> Maybe there is a chair that is in good condition but features an outdated pattern. Give the furniture new life with spray paint that is designed specifically for fabric. Reupholstering a piece can be time consuming and expensive to achieve the right result.
