I have so many idea's of making something out of something else and come up with this post. What can you make out of one thing into something else?

Baby changing table turned into a vegetable holder/ripener.

Two great ideas Taz. The wife jumped all over the cook book one.

DIY garden path. Take a multi picture frame and fill with concrete. (Beeswax on the wood - or cooking oil will aid in the release)

By the way that is not me in the pic about the coat hanger. I have used them for years to do just that tho.

Love the changing table idea. Wouldn't take anything but to slip the leaves in to dry herbs in it, too. I have read that ripped pantyhose can be used to hang onions and garlic to dry out (wish I had room to grow either!), and I have used Fancy Feast cans to mold dryer lint and candle wax into fire starters.

I save yogurt containers (the single serving ones) throughout the year and use them to start my seedlings. Just poke a few holes in the bottom for drainage and get an old cookie pan - line it with aluminum foil and fill with water. The holes will draw the water up into the soil so you don't have to water them every day, just keep the cookie pan filled.
