Do you have a weird space that needs a custom creation?

Then Lawless Upcycling is your solution!

custom metal flowers and accessories

In the “Shop” page, there are numerous types of metal flowers, stems and wood bases I created from upcycling vintage tools and hardware that are part of Lawless Upcycling’s Metal Flowers series (juxtaposition of hard, man-made metal used to emulate a soft, natural flower). However, I recognize that folks may want a different flower design, such as with varying tools and hardware or a different configuration of the tools and hardware.

If you do, I’d love the chance to work with you to create your perfect flowers and accessories. I actually have so many other ideas for flower designs and tons of super unique materials so I am confident we can create something special.

Initial consultation is free and then I will determine a price based on what you request and how long I estimate it will take to make.

KIDS BIRTHDAY PARTIES

Your kid and their friends can have their own upcycling party where they get to make whatever they want from a wide array of discarded materials, while at the same time being environmentally conscious. Such materials and all needed tools and supplies are provided.

Lawless Upcycling can tailor the party so to ensure your kid enjoys their birthday celebration. Initial consultation is free, during which a price range will be discussed for the party (minimum of $250). Price factors include the type and amount of materials I need to source, organize and bring, and the planned activity or event.

Enjoy the photos and video from Akhil’s 6 year old birthday party. Here is the mom Kayt’s description of the party:

“Akhil turned 6 and celebrated by building ‘Imagination City’!

At his upcycled build party, he and his friends used all kinds of reclaimed materials to dream up and construct their own little city—skyscrapers, neighborhoods, and plenty of wonderfully mysterious structures that only kids could invent. Watching them let their imaginations run wild was pretty magical.

A huge thank you to my good friend Annie Ro—someone I’ve been dreaming and scheming with for more than 20 years. She recently launched an upcycling business and in addition to creating beautiful things, she’s on a mission to help kids engage creatively and think differently about the materials around them.

If you have a creative home project, or are curious what your kid can do with a hot glue gun and the most unpredictable assortment of upcycled materials she keeps in her garage, she’s your person.

I’m so grateful she brought her magic to this party and helped make Akhil’s budding urban planner dreams come to life!”

Akhil loves hotels so I before the party I made him his own hotel, which I did in stages so I could use it as an example to help spark the kids’ creativity about potential ways to use the materials.

woodworking, metal and/or crafting workshop

Want to learn woodworking and/or metalworking skills and how to use various tools? Or do you have a specific project in mind, such as a gift you want to make for someone special? Or want to craft a costume together?

I can create and facilitate numerous types of workshops and classes that can be customized to whatever you want, either in my own workshop or potentially at a location of your choosing. Free initial consultation, during which we will discuss what you want and the estimated price.

Can’t wait to be creative with you!

Enjoy the photos of times when folks came to my house and we made costumes and props, which included me teaching them various crafting skills and using my tools and upcycled materials.
