How about getting creative this Easter?
Whether you're a dab hand at DIY or a recycling rookie, why not make good use of the Easter break and show your neighbours your upcycling talents in the 2019 Resene Upcycling Awards!
Upcycling is all about taking a preloved item and transforming it - whether it's turning old skateboards into a coffee table, pallets into a home entertainment unit or repurposing an old baby cot into a desk for your little learners.
Unleash your creativity on your neighbourhood by sharing your creation in this year's Resene Upcycling Awards. Make sure you tell us about any Resene paints, colours and stains you've used - and don't forget your before and after photos. You could win one of four prizes worth $500!
