My Resene Upcycling Award entry

Eurika from Levin

Project 1. My significant other made a plywood postbox from plywood harvested off an old pallet and painted it drab brown. After watching it gather dust for a few months, I grabbed it one day and snuck off to the Horowhenua art collective's weekly group, where I set about turning it from drab to fab with the help of too many resene test posts to list individually. Project 2 is a drab cane wine cooler, again far too boring for everyday life, but a quick lick of paint soon raised it from the dead.
