Finally, hang the umbrella-turned-bouquet and bouquet-turned-wreath on your door! And since Christmas is just around the corner, you might as well turn it into a mistletoe!

Since you will make this for a toddler, make sure to use a plastic umbrella!
Take a bright-colored umbrella with colorful patterns and simply hang plush toys and small, colorful stuffed animals from its stretcher and ribs.
Place the umbrella above your toddler’s crib and let him or her play to their heart’s content!
It’s such a good feeling to know that the smile on your child’s face was thanks to something you made the effort to create by yourself.
#5 – Umbrella lampshade

Who says you can’t use an umbrella to shield yourself from indoor lighting!
In this case, you’ll need to remove the umbrella pole but leave the umbrella ribs and canopy to use it as a light shade.
Wrap the canopy with a strong thread around the light bulb and you get a homemade lampshade and a recycled umbrella! In this case, only part of the umbrella is recycled, but you’ll figure out what to do with the handle because the next big idea might be yours!
There you have it! Those were the multiple alternative uses of umbrellas you and your friends may not have heard of before, so go ahead and share them with your friends, too!
