Repurposed My Way ~ Shelly
Hello Friends,
I'm Shelly and I like to Rescue, Renew and Repurpose new and used items. They could be destined to go to the trash pile, give away, yard sale or from a thrift store. I usually can see something different in the items and bring out a new beauty in them.
Currently, I live Off Grid in Maine on 12 acres with my Husband of 30+ years. Chickens are our animals of choice at the moment, but you never know what may be next. We started a channel on KZread called *Whiskey n Sunshine Off Grid* for gardening and Homesteading ideas, But I wanted to share my passion for Repurposing My Way separate from that channel.
I love being creative and sharing my ideas to help people find renewed love for their old tired items.
I hope this sounds interesting to you and you will stick around and see some different repurposed, renewed, diy's that inspire you.
Thank you & Enjoy!
Shelly

Did you clear coat the rosin salt? If I set these outside by my front door I’m afraid wind and blowing snow would wear away the epsom salt. I live in Wisconsin so blowing snow is an everyday thing .
Loved all of them. My favorite was the spring light!
So jelly of your dump Shelly! I have to roam the streets to find unwanted "junk" 🤣! Absolutely love the game board transformation! The little lamp so sweet💗 I have some old springs I am using in a project as well, they are GREAT! My primitive soul sings when that lovely mustard color appears, so rich! That basket is simply lovely! Thanks so much for sharing my sweet, talented friend!🤗
Awww thank you so much Dawn! I am so glad you enjoyed the projects.
Great ideas and tips!!!
Thank you! 😊
Is the basket for sale?
I made up two different ones in this video. The only one available at this time is the large gray picnic basket.
Qual a cor da cesta?❤
It's Urbane Bronze by Sherwin Williams.
Hi Shelly. Love your videos. I was wondering if u sell any of those rusty springs. I would love to purchase some.
I might have a few in my stash I could part with. I sold a bunch last year and kept a few. Email me at [email protected] and I will let you know what I have.
Love all your tips. The napkin holder came out beautiful!
Thank you!
Love the tote!!!❤
Thanks Natalie 😊
Omg! You won’t believe this! I made over the Mancala game into a jewelry tray 😮❤
That is too funny! I missed that one.
I'm so happy you rescued that great print!! Beautiful
Thank you! 😊
My first time watching your channel and I thought it was fabulous. I really loved how you line the basket. The only think I would have done any different was to spray the basket brown and then did the mustard over it; but, I am a brown primitive kinda person. LOL Oh and its nice to meet you Shelly, I am Melinda.
Hey Melinda! Nice to meet you!! Brown would have been great too. It's all in preference and subject to change of course.
Loved them all but I think my favourite was the little lamp, as well as for eggs the trays would be great for jewellery or beads 😊❤
I totally agree! I am glad you like them.
This is my 1st time seeing one of your videos. Loved everything & I’m subscribing.
Welcome Terri! I am so glad you enjoyed my projects. Thank you!!
Sweet caddy
Hey Thanks!!😊
Sweet Little Lamp. Dont forget to distress and wax the feet of the egg carton project. You might want to fill the legs if you plan on selling it.
Yes, it's looking good and ready for someone to love them. 😊
Love them all!
Thank you Doris! 🤗
Love them all!!!🖤🖤🖤
Thanks so much Linda! 💕
Never heard of that game you mentioned, only saw two egg trays!😁 Thank you for sharing your process of lining that basket. A refresher never hurts!❤ Gotta say the egg trays were my favorite though!❤❤
You are so welcome! I am glad you like them. Thank you!!!
I used fusion woodwick paint on an antique corner cabinet outside and chocolate on the inside shelves and back of the shelves. So pretty. I really like the little tool box and will be doing that on one I have. If I don’t text after each project or forget what I wanted to say. 😂 thanks for sharing and listening.
I bet that color combination looks beautiful together. The little tote was fun and so easy to do. I love how they come out.
Love the bed spring lamp. Now back to the video. 🙂
Yay! Thank you Connie!
Shelly, thank you for showing the basket makeover. You certainly gave inspiration on this one. I also have some old bed springs that I didn’t know how to style. Shelly to the rescue 😊. Thank you for all your wonderful videos.
Also the egg trays were a home run!!!! Love your ideas❤
I am glad you found inspiration. I love using those rusty springs on random projects. 😊
I loved that little tote and the candle lamp. They turned out darling!
Thanks so much Bonnie!
Love the little light! I wish that was in your etsy store for purchase :)
If it doesn't sell in my booth by next week when I go again, I will add it for purchase.😊
Shelly, I love all your projects. I think I could watch you all day.
Oh you are too sweet Carrie 😊 I am glad you enjoyed them.
I loved everything especially the basket. GOD Bless😊
Thanks so much Kim!
Great projects, Shelly! I can never pass up little totes and boxes! I love what you did with yours. Fab idea to add the spring to the candle, too! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Traci! Those totes are so fun to makeover.
They are all great, and I like each one, but I have to say the basket is my favorite! But then I love baskets. Thank you for this video. I definitely need to get some of the Waverly wax. I haven't ever used it before, but I love the effects I see people getting with it.
You have to try it! It is such a game changer for so many things. I like to water it down a bit and use it as a stain too.
Hi Shelly, I really liked the project pieces you did. That game board/egg holder turned out nice looking n the light you found is cool. I try to find those small lights when I’m out. You adding the spring was a great idea n also the home spun material around neck of the candle looks awesome. You gave me a great idea, thanks. Doing that basket makeover a big thank you. I like that style n I’m going to definitely try it. ♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🌟
You are so welcome! I am happy you enjoyed them 🤗
The napkin tote turned out great and is my favorite. I had never heard of mancala. Had to look it up and how to play. I saw egg holder too. Thanks for showing your process of doing baskets.
I never had either until I saw the "egg holders" lol
I got a mancala game board great idea!
Go for it! I have never played it, but I do use egg holders. lol
@@RepurposedMyWay it’s a fun game..I can see transfers and deco podge paper on the game piece as well u gave me many ideas thanks!
Thanks so much Shelly,, now I know how to do my baskets,, also loved all your make overs too,,
You're so welcome Donna! I am glad you like them. 😊
Shelly you are very clever! I'm so happy I found your channel.i have a very small booth at an antique mall, seems like people in the country where we live still like primitive so with what you are teaching me, I'm ever so great full. I would like to purchase some samples of fusion paint to try a few country colors , my fear it is beyond my budget😔 I loved your little tote and loved the color you painted it. Thank you again
Thank you! I'm so glad I can help. It is great paint, with a built in sealer. So you are saving money by not buying that. Honestly I enjoy using Waverly paint from Walmart just as much, and it's easier to distress back with too.
Great job !! I love how they all turned out !!
Thanks so much!!
Beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!!
Shelly love how they all turned out! The egg trays are awesome! The baskets and lamps are always beautiful! 👍🥰❤️
Thanks so much Terry! 😊
Love the egg holders!
Thank you!
Dang!!! Wish I had a dump with free stuff! The "egg tray" turned out so cute. Love the little lamp. The old napkin holders looks so much better with paint and greenery. The basket is so pretty. TFS Shelly P.S. All are my FAVORITE!
Thanks Donna!😊
I totally saw an egg carton too 😂
lol
The pillows turned out so cute.
Thank you Amy!
In this video, I'm grabbing items from my stash. Things I have thrifted, got at yard sales, and the ever-famous dump finds and paring them with items I can repurpose into my upcycles. More repurposed upcycled @repurposedmyway
The greenery you added to the star looks great. It is just enough green, not way out there bright. Tfs
Thanks so much Joan 😊
Love all of them! Beautiful! Love and Prayers,
Thank you Angie!
