Part of having a “green” lifestyle is recycling and reusing, and not just in the way of saving glass and paper. One of my pastimes is finding a new purpose for an old piece of furniture. Sometimes I refinish and repaint them a bright color to use as an accent piece and other times I leave them in their natural state. Either way, I enjoy visualizing the use of an old treasure.
In some cases, pieces of an item are more valuable than the actual piece itself. For instance, there are a lot of practical and functional ways to repurpose drawers of a dresser or cabinet. Here are some really interesting way to use drawers in a new and stylish way.
So before you throw out those drawers, think of a possible use for them. I always go to Pinterest for new ideas. If you can visualize it yourself, Pinterest can do that for you.

What a neat idea! I really like the end products (especially the colorful drawers in the top photo!). I’m going to have to try that sometime.
Hi Kimberly! You can do a lot with old drawers. I hope I’ve given you some inspiration. Make sure you update me when you have the finished product!
