I have never seen so much creativity using things that seem useless when old, in my life.
This is so inspiring to me….God has given you a gift, please continue to use it. You made my day!!! I am always looking for great ideas like these, but using old drums as a light fixture, or an old bicycle as a stand for a sink in a bathroom never occured to me. These are great ideas. Thank you!
P. S. I never wanted a baby grand piano, but now that I’ve seen what you did with an old one, I really wish I had one now.
