Get your upcycling fix AND support the Salvos.

By Naomi Foxall •

FacebookPinEmailTweet

We absolutely love this project! For the fifth year in a row, leading woodcare brand, Feast Watson, has launched the Re-Love Project; a collaborative campaign which sees talented Australian designers transform pre-loved timber furniture into one-of- a-kind auction pieces, all in the name of charity.

The expertly crafted items are being revealed across Feast Watson’s Re-Love Project website, the
@feast_watson Instagram page and the six designers’ own social media channels, before being
auctioned off in August to raise money for Salvos Stores across the country.

Get your up-cycling fix AND support the Salvos.

Salvos Stores CEO, Matt Davis, said the Feast Watson Re-Love Project is something the Salvos Stores
have loved being involved with over the past five years. “There’s something incredibly sentimental about rehoming a pre-loved piece of furniture, and Feast Watson’s Re-Love Project is a fantastic initiative that encourages everyone to try their hand at upcycling,” says Mr Davis.

The Feast Watson Re-Love Project follows each designers’ upcycling process from start to finish on
Instagram, giving design fans the opportunity to follow their journey and pick up tips, tricks and
inspirational ideas.

Feast Watson’s Brand Manager, Jessica Plateo, says “Feast Watson is currently witnessing an upcycling
revolution, with more and more design enthusiasts keen to create their own Re-Loved transformations.”

Upcycling can seem like a daunting task at first, but the Feast Watson Re-Love Project documents
the experts’ upcycling journeys across designers’ blogs and Instagram whilst also sharing how-to
guidance, to give people the confidence to pioneer their own projects.

You can check out the project and bid for any of the items to support Salvos stores from 14th of August

Head to the Feast Watson Re-Love Project website or follow @feast_watson on Instagram to see which
pieces catch your eye.

  • Aimee Tarulli – @aimeestylist
  • Dowel Jones – @doweljones
  • Gina Ciancio – @stylecuratorau
  • Kristine Franklin – @thepaintedhive

Located in Melbourne’s Elsternwick, this stylis Located in Melbourne’s Elsternwick, this stylish home was renovated recently with @keenarchitecture and @studio_esar at the helm. Brimming with fun, functionality and colour, the home is shared by ex MasterChef contestant Peter Kritikides, his wife Erica and their two children. 

Occupied by the family since 2015, the renovation brief called for a sympathetic yet modern upgrade to the heritage listed original home as well as the demolition and rebuild of the back of the residence.

A home that got all its extra special details AFTE A home that got all its extra special details AFTER handover with stunning results!

When Emma Fuller built her family home five years ago, she went with the ‘basic’ package with a view to elevating the spaces in a more budget-friendly manner down the line. Knowing that she couldn’t afford her entire wish list upfront, she made allowances within the plans so that she could add all the special details later.

“Although the builder could have incorporated every detail we asked for, we knew it would have blown our budget, but that didn’t mean I was going to let the dream go,” says @hamptonsinhighfields 

Patience and hard work have definitely paid off and today on the blog we are showing you how she did it from adding a fireplace, bench seat, wallpaper, french doors, a mudroom, built in bookcases, fretwork, kitchen island trim, IKEA wardrobes and more!

Pop over to the blog via link in bio to read our chat with him.

“I believe in the democratisation of good design,” says Darren, who wanted the rugs to be affordable. “It was very important to me that they were ethically made, and they are all Good Weave certified ensuring that no child labour is involved in their creation."

▶️ Swipe for before! Bathroom of my dreams 😍

Overcrowded with fixtures and with very little natural light, this main bathroom was in need of an update. The existing window was removed and replaced with custom steel bi-fold doors with clear glass above and ribbed for privacy below. “They provide an abundance of natural light and connection to the beautiful garden and incredible view. Indoor or outdoor bathing is now optional!” says Darren Genner of @studio__minosa
