Save The Date: National Upcycling Day- 24th June
Upcycling is in! It’s no secret that everyone is looking to save money where they can, while at the same time taking control of their purse strings by getting creative and being sure never to settle for second best! What this has created is a thriving community of upcyclers: like minded people creating beautiful products and inspiring the rest of us to innovate and create on a budget.
At Gumtree, we want to celebrate the artistry and ingenuity of upcyclers, this is why as part of National Recycling Week (June 22-28) we’re campaigning for the UK’s first National Upcycling Day to be held on 24th June.
To build up support for the day, we have challenged a group of leading bloggers and hobbyists to upcycle any item of their choice sourced from Gumtree. Their unique creations will be showcased at the Gumtree Blogger Upcycle Challenge which is being held on 16th June, 2015 at White Space, London. Upcycling expert and designer Max McMurdo will be on hand to share his thoughts on the state of upcycling in Britain today as well as pick a winning item from the showcase.
Do get in touch if you’d like to be put on the guestlist for the Gumtree Blogger Upcycle Challenge. At Gumtree, we have a wealth of insights on upcycling and we can assist with any articles you may be creating about it.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
