Hello Wend-say! I couldn't be more excited for the middle of the week! And today I get to share a really unique competition with ya'll. We all know I have a huge passion for vintage furniture and I adore {re}cycling an piece from the past to make it new again...so this is right up my alley! 

My friends over at Uncommon Goods...I wrote about them a few weeks ago here. Well they have started an Upcycled Comp. with a really big prize to their website. The rules are super simple and I am going to post them below, but I thought I would share a few of my all time favorite upcycling projects.....ever.
