We found some of the most creative upcycled cereal box crafts. Ideas and projects for the entire family. From the most experienced crafter to someone just looking to create some raining day fun! 

Upcycled Cereal Box Crafts


I remember when I was about 10 and didn’t have hanging file folders. I wanted to organize my papers so I used manila folders, tapped on straws and allowed them to hang on my homemade file cabinet. My dad thought I was genius. Though, initially, I wasn’t doing this to see how smart I was, I was being resourceful with my supplies, it created a spark in me to upcycle what I had.

If you love to create, craft,  or perhaps see what genius things you can make from recycled materials, this post is for you! Take a look at these Upcycled Cereal Box Crafts and let us know your favorite! What have you tried?
