🍽️Don’t throw away those chipped plates just yet!

Why don’t you turn them into a statement piece for your garden.

We did use a ceramic drill bit for this one,, but is a great investment if you want to do this on a few items. But make sure you wear a mask so you don’t breath in any ceramic dust!

We reused an old chain off a hanging basket for this one and gave it a spray paint.

🦜Simple and easy!

🔎 Reviva Reuse Shop Mystery Item of the Week

Last week’s mystery item had us scratching our heads for most of the week 👀
Luckily, a few of you solved it and confirmed it was a FieldCraft Top Grafter grafting machine, used for tree grafts.
Well done, super sleuths 👏

Now for this week’s mystery…
What on earth could this be? 🤔
What do you think it was used for… and have you ever used one before?
Bonus points if you can tell us how it works 👀

Our Level Up crew were back at it again last week, learning isn’t always done in a classroom.

🚗Small motors, go carts and recycled jewellery… there is something for everyone at the Tinkerage!

✨ Got a creative skill to share? Let’s make it happen at The Tinkerage! ♻️

We’re opening up our space to crafters, makers, repairers and hands-on thinkers who want to run workshops using reuse materials.

Whether it’s a one-off class or something you run regularly, we’d love to hear from you 💚

Think mosaic, jewellery making, sewing, candle making, small motor or bike repairs, macramé using recycled materials… anything you’d find at a handmade market (with a reuse twist).

What we can offer:
🏠 A free space to host your workshop
🔧 Access to some tools and materials (like pallets, textiles, broken jewellery, wax and more)
📣 Support promoting your workshop

A few things to note:
• You can charge participants for your workshop if needed
• You’ll manage your own bookings and payments
• Bring along any additional tools or materials you require

⏰ Available times:
Friday 12pm to 4pm
Saturday 8am to 4pm

Interested or want to chat it through?
📧 Email Kahli at [email protected]

Let’s bring more creativity, skills and reuse to the community 🌿

Tag a maker or group who should get involved!

We had a pile of these beautiful long stem wine glasses come through the shop a few weeks back, the only thing missing was a way to display them 🤪

Our crew at the Tinkerage can up with this simple timber stand, efficient and classy.

🍷No need to hide these away in a cupboard! Now it’s a statement piece in any wine lovers home.

Edit - no wine glasses were harmed in the making.

🕵️‍♂️ The mystery continues…
We shared this Reviva Reuse Shop Mystery Item tool last week and had so many theories suggested — wire stripping, tree grafting, fencing, even window building 🤯

But here’s the thing…
👉 We’re still not 100% sure what it is

So we’re calling in reinforcements 👀
Have you used one of these tools before?
Or know someone who might know what it is?

Tag them or share this with a friend who might be able to finally solve the mystery 👇
