Happy Earth Day!

Earth Day 2012! Its the 42nd Earth Day and every year people are finding ways to help our environment.  Sometimes it is by using bio-degradable water bottle, or taking your recycles to the collection facility so they don't end up in a landfill. But what about that old furniture you have that you were going to put out on the curb for the trash man to take? Don't throw it way! Give it new life. Here are so great ideas for that old chair or dresser you may have laying around. Enjoy!

 Apartment style garden, small and thanks to the attached lamp your mini garden will get plenty of light!

 Love this idea! Putting grass seeds on chairs them put them outside! Definitely give new life to any old piece. 

 Remember those hard case suitcases that were oh so cool in the 80's and 90's? Well don't throw them away deconstruct them in half and top with foam and fabric of your choice an ta da! lovely new ottoman or seat!



 Dresser turned plant shelf? An old dresser makes a great place to display small potted plants or a nice herb garden!
Old fabric on your sofa? Rip it off and gut the insides of your dated sofa. This is  now a multilevel planter box perfect for those various flowers you love to display!
