Repurposefulness

It's been too long since I've featured repurposing photos.  Let's take a look at some ingenious creations for a
little Monday Motivation.


 What a balancing act - using vintage suitcases to
hold up the table.  So fleaChic!


Haven't found your ideal coffee table, yet?  No rush. 
Just stack some coffee table books and put a vase on top!


Another clever use of shutters as a headboard.


Such a darling idea - especially love using the
bike's basket to hold towels and washcloths. 


Salvage a broken picture frame, break it some more,
and use the pieces to make - what else? - a picture frame!


What a great giftwrapping idea for homemade treats.

Before & After meets Repurposing:

Who would have thought that a vintage cake holder
would make an awesome retro lamp?! 


Speaking of Before & After projects,
take a look at these transformations:


Gotta say - I'm crushing on that wagon wheel.

How many times have you seen one of these little
nightstands at a flea market or in a thrift store?


Sew sweet:

Beautiful treatment for a vintage sewing machine cabinet.


Stately renovated china cabinet waiting
in the warehouse for their new owner.


 Darling corner chair was lost against all of the paneling. 
Now, it's a statement piece.

A country clock was turned into a sophisticated city clock:


 












   Ordinary primitive bench:

    Extraordinary chic bench!

     When rescued, this desk was battered and bruised:


Chipped corner - ouch.  It had to be rebuilt with plaster. 


Excellent job!

Remember - it may be Monday but it doesn't have to be mundane!
