    I have been decorating the house I share with my boyfriend for the last year or so and have done alot of recycling/reusing!

    We have collected alot of 2nd hand stuff along the way and often go hunting for bits in dumps and have got some amazing pieces that just need a clean.

    Our flat screen TV broke so we decided instead of throwing it away, we stuck loadsa photos on it and put it on the wall in another room

    Constructed a gorgeous coffee table from the old drawers of a chest of drawers and an old window and used the frame of the chest for hanging belts/bags etc

    Used left over bathroom tiles to tile around the new/2nd hand stove

    He copied an Ikea style bathroom and made it himself costing not even near half of Ikea price.

    We used really cheap knobs,buttons,bottle lids to give texture to a wall in a larger room.

    Made blinds from old bed clothes (on an early Singer!) dyed.

    Made a shelf over the bed out of a tree that was cut down

    anyone else got any ideas?!
