I love the stained glass windows as headboards! I’ve found new uses for something else we take for granted

I have a use for an old chicken crate. I hung one from my kitchen ceiling with old dog chain. The boarded back faces the ceiling and the rungs face my kitchen island. I have s hooks on the rungs and hang my pots from it. The boarded top of the crate is used as a shelf and stores my crockpot, roaster, etc. It stores lots of things that normally took up valuable cabinet space and counter space. Since my kitchen is also chicken and rooster themed, it fits right in

That box idea is brilliant and not one I had considered. Thank you so much for the idea.

HELLO-

I JUST DISCOVERED YOUR NEWSLETTER ABOUT 1 MONTH AGO AND I LOVE IT!!! THANKS FOR ALL THE GREAT IDEAS. I HAVE A IDEA THAT I THINK YOU MIGHT LIKE. THOSE LOVELY GIFT BAGS THAT WE GET, SOME ARE SO PRETTY I CAN’T BARE TO PUT THEM AWAY SOMETIMES, SO I USE THEM AS VASES. I’LL PUT FLOWERS IN 1 OR 2 VASES OR GLASSES, DEPENDING ON THE SIZE OF THE BAG, PUT THE VASES INSIDE THE BAG, ARRANGE THE FLOWERS AND NOW YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL ARRANGEMENT. I’VE USED THIS FOR BABY SOWERS AND BIRTHDAY PARTIES, USING THE DECORATIVE BAGS IN VARIOUS SIZES AND NOW I HAVE A BEAUTIFUL ARRANGEMENT FOR THE PARTY! I ALWAYS GET TONS OF COMPLIMENTS. HAVE A GREAT HOLIDAY WEEKEND!
