Upcycling Week was all about living more sustainably and we discovered how to breathe new life into tired, old or unwanted household objects. A crack team of upcycling experts hosted a wide range of exciting hands-on workshops, showing us how to transform unloved items into brand new creations and sharing advice along the way. You’ll be amazed what you can create from nothing with some imagination, basic tools and a little elbow grease. Watch again here!
