What's Old is New

Eric and I hung out with a fun couple this past weekend, playing games and watching a rather silly British comedy.

Among other inspiring and just plain cool pieces in their home, I was drawn to the dresser they used as a TV stand.  We happen to be in need of a new TV stand and I'm now scouring craigslist for the perfect fixer-upper.

My online inspiration is below.  Enjoy!

{Joi removed the middle drawers and used the space as shelves 
for the electronic players.  The side drawers function as storage.}

{Laura added hair pin legs to an old cabinet to 
house her husband's growing record collection}

Have you re-purposed something in your home?  I'd love to hear about it!

  1. This is a pretty clever idea! Our TV stand is an Ikea bookshelf that I'd much rather use as a bookshelf instead. I mean it's nice and all but you can see all the cords and it just looks so cluttered. I'm ready for something with REAL storage i.e. DOORS!
