Interests from Pinterest #1: Trash to Treasure

    What was once considered "Trash" is being made into "Treasure"! Today we picked four pieces that some people might consider old, broken, tarnished or trash. By making some simple changes and thinking outside of the box these pieces are back and better than ever! 


    Inspired by crafty Pinterest photos and innovative ideas, this weeks "Interest from Pinterest" shows you how to reuse and recycle some of that "junk" around the house. After all...

Interesting from Pinterest #1: Trash to Treasure

  1. Large Vintage Chippy Yellow Galvanized Tub: 


         We love this idea!  Taking an old metal galvanized tub and putting it to use.  You can paint it any color you wish to match other furniture or wall colors.  This tub can be used for magazines, toilet paper, kids shoes or even as a cooler at a barbecue.  However you choose to use it, this tub is not for the trash but is a true treasure!
