Monday means Repurposing Time at fleaChic.
Let's start with some cute garden ideas:

 

Follow the West Wind

Technically, using an old rusty wheelbarrow as a planter
isn't necessarily repurposing but it is neat, isn't it?

 Tea cups and saucers used as bird feeders are so cool.

Use a lemon, orange or a grapefruit to start your seedlings. Plant
the entire thing in the ground and the rind will compost directly
into the soil to nourish the plant as it grows.

A set of alphabet imprint stamps can
even be useful in the garden.

The ultimate organic garden marker!

 

 

Here's a repurposing craft idea that the kids could make:

EVERYONE needs a hidden house key.  When the kids get bored have them hot glue a pinecone or twigs to the bottom of an empty medicine bottle which can be loosely buried in the yard.  Great craft idea for keeping those little hands busy!

What a charming way to display a faucet handle collection.

Funning With Sisters
How many repurposed items can you
count on this birdhouse?


It's a little late to be bird-thoughtful but
keep this idea in mind next Spring:

Pollyanna Pumpkin
Set out a broom for the little tweeters
to use when making their nests.


Here are a few cool miscellaneous repurposing ideas that I've
been meaning to post and always seem to forget they're in the file:

An old cracked violin that couldn't be repaired proved that it
still was useful as the frame for a miniature string workshop.


 It might take a second glance to see that this awesome
Dunce Dog is painted on a set of school lockers:

Bicycle  +  wheel chair  =  Whaircycle!

Very cool.  (I love inventors!)

 

 

The Big Lebowski bowling pins are cute:

 You could paint a caricature of just about

any character on a bowling pin.

 

 

 
Well, that's it in a nutshell!  Hope you enjoyed today's
Repurposeful Monday ideas.  See you tomorrow.
