Let's Recycle

I have always liked to use found objects to create new things. They say necessity is the mother of invention but I think it's fun to improvise. Sure I could go to Ikea and buy it off the shelf but I prefer to make my own shelf out of things others consider worthless trash. For me, there's a sense of satisfaction by making something extraordinary from ordinary things. It's the weird stuff that's often wonderful. This is a good example of what I mean. Simply wonderful!
