I Refused to Buy New Christmas Decor — Here’s What I Made Instead

I refused to buy new Christmas decor this year — so I made my own from thrift-store finds! 🎁 Why spend a fortune (or add more waste) when you can create one-of-a-kind Christmas pieces with character and history? In this video, I’m giving old thrift-store treasures new life — from framed vintage album art, to tinted candle holders, to upcycled figurines and crystal salt shakers turned winter magic. Each project is simple, budget-friendly, and packed with nostalgia. ❤️ Stickum Candle Adhesive – keeps wobbly candles in place https://a.co/d/e4OHkbQ 👉 Rub ’n Buff (Antique Gold) – for adding that vintage sparkle 👉 Mod Podge Gloss – my go-to for sealing and crafting https://a.co/d/8fOkHOT 👉 Candy Cane graphic: https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/1605598139/vintage-candy-cane-card-printable Visit my Etsy store: https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/OurUpcycledLife ▶️ Subscribe to my email list for more crafting, DIY content and get free graphics! https://bit.ly/3NwjuK3 ▶️ Join my graphics membership! https://www.ourupcycledlife.com/graphics-club ▶️ Check out my Website! https://www.ourupcycledlife.com ▶️ Listen to our Podcast! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLC85BOmPdNWpq5GDOpZYHkZhoyKloJLfN ▶️ Visit my Shopify store: https://7cada2-9c.myshopify.com/ My Most Popular Downloads https://bit.ly/3KyENdj Chalk Paint Recipe Booklet https://bit.ly/4aKHZwV Crafting Powerhouse Digital Download Bundle ▶️ Follow Me on: • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/our_upcycled_life • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61572215336739 • Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.ca/deidregourlay/ • TikTok: https://bit.ly/3wfznxk ▶️ Support my channel: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Deidre If you love my videos please SUBSCRIBE and don't forget to press the bell, 🔔 like, comment and share. ▶️ Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/c/OurUpcycledLife ------------------ Email: [email protected] #trashtotreasure #homedecor #OurUpcycledLife #reuse #upcycledcrafts #diycrafts #diy
