I'm all about repurposing & recycling MTS!! Have been for years. Mostly furniture & decorative items.

Give me garish piece and some chalk paint and I will find a nook or cranny for it!!

I'm blown away by some of the cool things I see online that people have done with items others would consider ""worthless"" or of little value.

The buds of these flowers are plastic bags!!

It's neat to be able to be creative, even if you don't have a lot of $. Cool

I like to search for upcycling or repurposing websites. I haven't delved into Pinterest too much. I also like YouTube if you are looking for tutorial videos.

I see things in the forms of household items and turn them into home decor. I just do it if I get an idea. I've made vanity trays out of framed mirrors and a work area using a door and file cabinets. I use liter soda bottles as mini greenhouses for seedlings. I also use styrofoam egg crates to start seedlings.

If my mom would return my sewing machine, I think I would be sewing a new curtain for my bathroom window...from a bedsheet.
