Overview

The Trash to Treasure Challenge is all about transformation! Enter your trash-to-treasure transformations for a chance to win some excellent prizes, including a Fein MultiMaster oscillating tool set and a much-coveted Instructables T-shirt.

Whatever you choose to build, keep in mind that we will be evaluating each entry based on ingenuity, clarity, creativity, and quality of presentation. When putting together your photos, consider including a before-and-after shot.

Good luck, and remember to show us how one man’s trash can become another man’s treasure!
