What to do with them?

Two ideas today. One simple, one not so simple.
One is an item that nearly every home has; the other you’ll have to hunt for unless you have an army in the backyard or neighbourhood.
Somewhere round the yard, you’ll probably have one of these…
If you’ve just installed a pool, or outdoor patio, use it to make one of these.
Or the not so simple, for the more adventurous, and you’ve happened upon one of these, what a bar set up for a den, man cave or outdoors.

Doors come in many shapes and sizes.
If you have been doing renovations you may have an old one around, or some nearby business has been doing them you my be lucky and score a freebie.
Here’s an idea for your pantry, giving you kitchen a rustic look.
The advantage of a sliding door is that it doesn’t require ‘room’ to open.
Maybe you don’t like the ‘old paint’ theme, so sand it down, stain and varnish it.

Here’s one that’s a little more complicated, but still a great idea for recycling, or repurposing as some call it.
Back in February I posted an idea for old pianos, Got an Old Piano?
Well, here’s the same blurb with another idea.
Well have you?
Can’t sell it, nobody wants pianos these days.
And you don’t know what to do with it…
Think outside the box:
Makes a great hideaway bar with a bit of ingenuity.

Usually vitriolic, at times bellicose; I'm not here to be nice
Each Friday, something to think about
A walk on the natural side each Sunday (or Monday...)
The Apothecary - A place to find natural products and remedies
So how have we gotten so far off course? When the label of ‘green’ was introduced, it was seen as a mission statement; something that would entitle the customer to some sense of comfort that they product they were supporting (which was usually more expensive) was working with the Earth’s best interests at heart. Instead we have simply completed a full consumerist revolution; the label has been taken, assigned a cultural identity and used to sell a piece of a lifestyle that is intended to speak more to your peers than to subsidize an environmental commitment.
