Unique Father’s Day Gifts, Upcycled Father’s Day Trophies

Today’s “Throwback Thursday” project is one I did five years ago but never even shared here on the blog!  But since Father’s Day is just around the corner I thought some unique Father’s Day gifts would be appropriate.  So, here come the upcycled Father’s Day trophies!

This first one is a trophy I made for my husband.   I found this, and a BUNCH of other old sports trophies, when we went antiquing in Chico, California.  They must have been new-old-stock or something.  There were quite a few in a few different sports and most weren’t personalized.

I used them to display my jewelry at the Room With a Past sale before Father’s Day that year (2014).  

I put a “sample” label on to give buyers an idea of what to do.

I saw these bull riding trophies at Antique Alley but I didn’t buy them.   But wouldn’t they be fun to repurpose for some unique Father’s Day gifts?

Now for a few more close ups of the vintage trophies… football…

…and basketball.

So, what would YOU do with these old trophies?
