When we speak of upcycling or recycling, most of us think of repainting or restoring something. Sometimes just merely using something for another use is another great way of recycling. During my trip to area thrift stores I found many ways of reusing vintage and antique items as they already were. What could be more fun! The possibilities are endless with what you can do. Maybe you have some of these items already, why not give them a new look and use.

A Sled As A Shelf
A Floor Shelf Hung On Wall
A Vintage Iron Board As A Table
A Vintage Hat As A Pendant Light
Silverplate Forks As Note Holders
An Old Suitcase As A Medicine Cabinet
