    Lately, I've been giving some thought to the growing trend of repurposing antiques, so I started researching the topic.   It continues to intrigue me and decided to investigate the popularity and maybe even put together a video report of my findings.

     

    Here's one example of something I found:

    Where they used a burlap sack and attached it to an old foot stool that needed recovering.  This idea along with many others, I found at:

    Feel free to share your experiences or links to others websites here.

     

    Thanks
