About the Big Ideas, Small Spaces Contest

We want to highlight your upcycling talents for all to see. Upcycle a smaller item to showcase at ReStore's booth at the upcoming Minneapolis Home + Remodeling Show at U.S. Bank Stadium! Show attendees will vote on their favorite projects, and the top three winners will receive prizes. You can then donate your upcycled entry to be sold at ReStore to help raise money for Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity's mission.

Contest entries must be dropped off at the New Brighton ReStore by January 30, 2024. Our staff will bring the contest entries to the Minneapolis Home + Remodeling Show to be displayed and voted on from February 2 to 4. Winners will be announced February 6, 2024.
