Most people have a lot of old things laying around, including boxes, furniture, and old containers. A lot of these people would think of these things as garbage, and when they get a chance to clean everything out, they would throw them away without a second thought. However, it is possible to repurpose things. Many people do not want to take the time to do this, but it could be well worth it. Especially for those who are into building or arts and crafts, it is very possible to take something that seems worthless and make it into something that has both impressive form and a clear function.
If you consider what Killer B. Design, a creative artist and builder, did with an old cooler that she found on her property, you may realize that you would benefit from doing something like this yourself.
Basically, she worked with her husband to make an old standard plastic cooler into a much more interesting type of cooler with a gorgeous rustic look. She only spent about $30 on supplies too, which makes her feat all the more impressive. Basically, she worked with her husband to construct a wooden standalone bench that would house the cooler, and the cooler now lies within planks of wood. It still functions as a cooler, but it is much more impressive looking and shows true talent and creativity.
This is just one example of what people can do when they decide to creatively preserve an old item.
