If you are a fan of Earth-friendly upcycling then you are going to love all of these upcycled tree stump creations. It is a sad reality that a countless number of trees are cut down everyday to make all sorts of items. What is even worse is that not all parts of the tree are used, which means that there are a lot of stumps and trunks left high and dry.
Thankfully designers and other creatives have found many ways to turn a wayward tree stump into an awesome and functional item. You may not know it, but a tree stump makes a mean chair or vinyl record player. You can check out all of these awesome upcycled tree stump creations here.
