You need to write a book! You have some great ideas.Originally Posted by stampit3d
An old wooden pully that is a flowering plant hanger out on the barn.
an old pickle crock is our Christmas tree stand.
A large plastic pretzle jar holds the birdseed in the little gazebo bird feeder my hubby made.
The birdbath, with the top turned upside down in the winter is a "table" for another bird feeder.
Used old shower curtains for drop cloths when painting something.
An old , heavy coffee mug, with the handle broken off makes a wonderful container in your bathroom cupboard for combs, hair brushes and hand mirror.
Pretty twin flat sheets make great tablecloths. (I also buy sheets to make a lot of things out of, as it`s a lot of yardage for the $ , plus it`s great for wide projects.)
2 clear window well covers that are pond covers for the winter.
A rubbermaid trash can buried next to the pond for a pond filter.
A cattle tank for a small pond.
A round fish bowl for the globe on the little lighthouse out by the pond.
Fancy goblets for votive candle sticks.
Silverware trays to organize spools of thread and small sewing items.
Clear display frames for holding rubber stamps.
Plastic dividers from boxes of chocolates for seperating jewelry.
Various sizes of plastic meat trays (from Walmarts) for seperating things in drawers.
A big plastic storage container with entrance hole cut for a litter box.
Plastic film containers to mix and store craft paints in.
Ice cube trays to sort craft beads by colors, size etc. in.
And on occassion I`ve even used my rolling pin as a hammer!
