Today I'm looking at my favorite trash to treasure home decor makeovers. My ever thrifty friends from the Thrift Store Decor Team selected their best decor transformations to share too. One of all time favorite makeovers are the horse trophies Debbie painted turquoise. I have a photo of them later in the post.
Trash To Treasure Home Decor Makeovers

Trash To Treasure Home Decor Makeovers
Recycled Pool Rack Succulent Display
The faux succulent hanging display I made earlier this year is really unique and I still love it. Of course, you guys know I'm a big fan of succulents. I have a hard time keeping plants alive and I always buy faux. You might be surprised to know that I've been able to keep the red topped cactus alive I featured in my porch decor with all the thrifty pots. I'm surprised!

Book Recycle
The "First Aid" book was also a fun project. I hate to see old books go to the dump. Saving a few might help.
Painted Thrift Store Tray
The painted tray from Maryann showcases one of my favorite color combinations. I like this paint idea.
They must have made a million of these bamboo trays because they are everywhere. That's okay. I feel a project coming on.
Refrigerator Magnet Organizer
Vintage anything speaks to me and this vintage vase wall made organizer in white is a fav. I like how Pam used it as an organizer on her frig instead of hanging it on the wall.
Spray Painted Horse Trophies
Here are the horse trophies I mentioned earlier. Collections are fun but like Debbie mentions in her post it's more fun to give them a cohesive look. The turquoise spray paint color is soft yet flashy. Debbie has a thing for turquoise.
I have never seen any horse trophies at the thrift store but if I do, I know what to do with them.
Lazy Susan Makeover
This lazy susan was badly scarred and stained. Sarah sanded it completely and restained for this fresh look. A simple stencil around the inner edges really classes it up.
Pedestal Bowl Makeover
The bit of gold stripes Christy painted around her bowl is an easy makeover and this simple change makes a statement.
Accent Table Makeover
I've never seen an accent table with a table top shaped like this one from Kristin. The blue color is perfect. See the accent table makeover here.
Wind Chime Refurbish
The JTS and my Dad have both restrung wind chimes but I don't have the patience for it. Gail refurbished these wind chimes and she has a great tutorial on the process.

So much inspiration from my fellow Thrift Store Decor Team gals - 2019 has been a great year! Can't wait to see what kind of projects we all come up with next year. 🙂
