Episode description

Have you been listening to the weekly podcasts? In episode #8 I talk about inspiration. So many people ask me “how do you think of this stuff”?  Tune in to this week’s show to hear a little bit about my thought process.

 

Above are the projects that were discussed in episode #8, the links and details are below in the show notes:

 

Be PINSPIRED by following along with My Repurposed Life on Pinterest.

 

Gail talks about the hall tree she made that was inspired by Debbie from Refresh Restyle.

You can see the $2 hollow core doors and more recent finds here.

 

Gail’s inspiration for marrying 2 pieces of furniture originally came from Sharon S on a message board from years ago. You can see Sharon’s work on her Facebook page, Another Man’s Treasure. You will find lots of inspiration there!

 

The second $2 door and a $5 dresser mirror were used to make a DIY entry way piece.

Gail made the easiest hall tree ever from a door for a Habitat for Humanity event in Madison Indiana.

 

After seeing a desk/hall table in a magazine, inspiration struck for this project: Ammo Box coffee table

Cutting up furniture is a favorite pass time, where these projects evolved from desks:

Tower of Terror, desk into a tall lingerie chest.  Another desk into a chest or  lowboy piece of furniture.

Early on, Gail was inspired by Ballard Designs to make a drying rack out of an old crib rail.

Don’t let your budget deter you. Hear all about junking, and how an old curbed ping pong table plywood was used to make a corner headboard bench.
