TACTFULLY REPURPOSED

There are so many little ways to recycle or repurpose objects. I try to recycle as much as it is possible. One reason being, I always feel bad throwing things away that, I know, could be used for something else in some way or another. These are just a few of the things that I have reused in practical ways, that are easy and can be accomplished by anyone. 

 This shower curtain, I made, from an old sheet that was missing it's matching fitted sheet.
I think it might eventually be fun to make a few different shower curtains to change out with the seasons.
This is a cheap and super easy way to have a custom shower curtain.
You can dip dye, embroider or paint it to perfectly match your style.   

I took this glass out of an old wooden candle shadow box. As cool as it was, the style of the box was just not my thing. I loved the glass so I took it out and now  use it to set my straightener on to protect the wood on my dresser. 

Quite a while back, I saw these owl rocks on floating around on Pinterest. So I made one to serve as a paperweight from a rock I picked up off of the ground in Colorado.
[Sadly, I do not know the source for this splendid idea.
 If you know it please let me know so that I can give credit where credit is due! Thank you! ]

This way to hang necklaces isn't necessarily a way to recycle anything, but rather a way to repurpose and transform a dead, awkward wall space. I am thankful for this awkward wall between my closet doors. It makes the perfect place to display necklaces.  

This old, scrap piece of sheet metal became a very useful magnetic chalkboard that now serves as my inspiration board. I write a new quote on it every few months. 

Plates can come in handy to use as ring, earring and bracelet holders. The glass that my cactus is growing in was a container that a candle came in. It's crazy to think just how many of these get thrown away each year.

I'm curious to know, what are some things that you have recycled/repurposed?
