Evening all. Can someone please explain the difference between recycling and upcycling? I've heard of upcycling on several tv programmes. If you tart up an old sideboard it is still an old sideboard that you have recycled....in my opinion.
Hi lovely lady....how are you? x
Maybe recycling is turning it into something else and upcycling is making it different/better but the same thing.
Had a glass or two so may not make sense. x
As far as I can gather 'upcycling' is a word invented by designers and the like as an excuse to add a 'few zeros' onto the price of what is basically rubbish ;-)
