Etsy and Bazaar Bizarre also throwing a contest called “Upcycling” where the winner will receive airfare, hotel accommodations and a free booth at the next Bazaar Bizarre, inside our Maker Faire (May 19-20) in San Mateo, CA. From the site, “...upcycling is the practice of taking something that is disposable and transforming it into something of greater use and value. In this contest we challenge all Etsy users to create an object to sell on Etsy that is comprised of materials that would have otherwise ended up in the trash heap.” Link.
