Father’s Day is not far off, and we’ve already combed through some of the best free patterns for dads. But this summer is also filled with bright ideas for repurposing common objects, like a watermelon, old maps or boring curtains. Have fun looking through this week’s Fresh Picks!

Watermelon Shark @ Sun Scholars

Shark Attack! Hats off to this great summer snack idea at Sun Scholars, complete with a Jell-o ocean and Swedish Fish.

Gift Tags @ The Chocolate Room

To and From: These gift tags are made from brightly colored tissue paper, recycled maps, paper punches, a label maker and some creativity. Check out more of Shelley’s work at The Chocolate Room!

Painted Curtains

Painted Curtains: We love this tutorial for painted drapes, a knockoff of a West Elm Design. Check them out at PB&J Stories!

Paint Chips bunting

Upcycled Bunting: Lots of ides for repurposing paint chips at the Naughty Secretary Club, like this pretty bunting made from hues of red.

Made It

Made It: Have you heard of the handmade store Made It? It’s the Etsy of Australia, and The Crafty Mummy tells us how she uses her blog to promote Made It sellers!
