I love repurposing and finding new uses for things. I have been looking for a new desk and saw in a magazine how someone had taken an old antique square drop leaf table and made it in to a desk. It was so cool looking.
Right now, I use an old printer stand (it's pretty big) on wheels as my desk. Since sitting for long periods of time can really get to me, I can wheel the "desk" to the couch and sit there or wheel it to another place that will be comfortable for me to sit and work.
I used to have my TV on this old printer stand and that was great too as I am always moving furniture around. I repurposed my buffet/side table to become the TV stand. The back had a board stapled on and it slides out. So I took that out so that I could put the home theater stuff in there. It looks so nice. When the home theater system is not in use I close the doors and it hides all the equipment so it looks clean.
I also love reading the magazine Real Simple. They have a section for new uses for old things. Some of these ideas are awesome! Things I never would have thought of. I never would have thought of using those nylon bags that onions, fruit, potatoes, etc. come in as a scrubby for pots and pans. It works too and saves money!
Since I am always looking for ideas, I thought I'd see what my Hugz buds do. Therefore, what kinds of things have you repurposed or found new uses for?
