Day 14 - Re-purpose

Today we'll look at some ways we can re-purpose what we have to get what we need.Let's go!

Most of  the things in our homes (or things we can pick up at the thrift store) could serve entirely different purposes if we give them a chance! And many times it's possible to re-purpose something for much less cost than buying whatever is meant to do the job. Here are a few examples:

Need a new vanity?

...Re-purpose a dresser or nightstand to do the job instead.

Or a new buffet to organize dishes and linens?

...Another good job for a dresser.

Want to brighten up your living room with new curtains?

...Put up some bed sheets.

None of your purses cutting it for fall fashion?

...Make one out of a sheet or an old shirt.

(I made this one out of a duvet cover)

 Does your bed look lonely without a headboard?

...Pick up an old door.

Can't afford a new couch?

...Try some pallets and a mattress.
