I love creative reuse too and I think its a great way to avoid waste and to think differently about it too. We've picked up some excellent items of furniture from the streets Excellent post!

Our basement is so full of stuff that we haven't gotten to messing with yet, that we have to restrain ourselves. Sad days, indeed, when a century-old solid-wood door gets left on the curb and we can't take it home (last spring, the reason was, "we just picked one up -- where will we put #2?!?") Recycling this old stuff is the best -- there's so much that people just throw out, it's such a waste.
