Let's kick the week off with some outstanding examples of imaginative upcycling and repurposing:
I want one of these hardware store bins - great

Little wooden shims can be purchased at Lowe's, Home
Depot, or any hardware store for less than a quarter each.
Very cool art project.
The beautiful lamp to the left was made with plaster of paris and - wait for it - coffee filters! Incredibly cool.
Another example of how to use an old window.
The colorful botanical prints are actually from
an old gardening book. So fleaChic!
Here are two useful repurposing ideas for the kitchen:
Growing your own herbs is healthful and economical.
How precious is this teapot floor lamp?!
Everyone of us has seen headboards at
thrift stores and flea markets that were in

Mason jar chandeliers have been all over the internet,

silver plated platters, spoons and serving pieces.
And remember, carpe diem Monday!

An excellent read. I will definitely be back.
