4. Upcycled Thrift Store Bookshelf
Even if you don’t use your thrifted bookshelf to house any actual books, it’s still an amazing piece to have. If only for the storage space and decor element alone. This gorgeous bookshelf was transformed using a paint, some wood stain, and a few fun stencils. It is a simple project that can be completed in an afternoon but has a lasting effect on any room it resides in.

6. Upcycled Thrift Store Sweater Lamp Shade

This project doesn’t even require any sewing knowledge or expensive tools, only a simple sweater, a plain lampshade, and some hot glue.
