What "SENIOR" people do during their spare time
Here are some ideas to help you be greener this year (and you don’t have to be retired to do them). Recycle, reuse, upcycle…
This is what OLDER people do during the day with their spare time!
Repurpose Old Barrels Into a Drum Set Repurpose a Card Catalogue Into a Mini Bar Use Old Books as Shelves Turn an Old Bike Into a Bathroom Counter Reuse Ketchup Bottles as a Pancake Squirter Repurpose Old CD Holders Into A Bagel Storage Device Fill a Box With Skewers and it Becomes an All-Purpose Knife Block Turn an Old Door Into a Coffee Table Transform a Chair into a Towel Rack and Shelf Turn An Old Bathtub Into a Love Seat
(I’m not sure how comfortable this would be) Use Old Lego Pieces As a Key Holder Use Your Old Computer Tower as a Mail Box Reuse Old Kleenex Boxes as Bag Dispensers Turn an Old Mini Fridge Into a TV Stand and Storage Unit Upcycle Old Light Bulbs Into Candles Repurpose an Old Suitcase Into a Medicine Cabinet Use Paperclips to Organize Your Cables Use An Old Hanging Shoe Rack to Organize Your Pantry Use Old Books to Create a Desk Turn Old Bulletin Boards into a Jewellery Organizer Turn Old Tennis Rackets Into Mirrors (or picture frames?) Turn Old Credit Cards (or Gift Cards) Into Guitar Picks Create a Window Cover Using Old Picture Slides Turn Old Suitcases Into Side Tables Turn Old Wrenches Into Wall Hooks Use Old CD Cases to Store and Organize Cables Upcycle Old Mugs, Bottles and Bowls Into Light Fixtures Reuse Toilet Paper Rolls to Organize Cables and Chords Use Old Picture Frame Corners Like Tiles Use a Pipe with Valves as a Coat Rack
