Tossed & Found...

Every so often a book come along, that provides such incredible inspiration that it makes me want to paint and alter every piece of furniture in my apartment. While in Woodstock this weekend I picked up Wary Meyers' Tossed & Found from Still Life Mercantile.

This book features some amazing reused/ recycled and DIY projects. The husband and wife team invite the reader to search their own garages, attics and dumpsters to "select something that somebody (even you) thought had outlived its usefulness. Then, transform that castoff into a piece that’s interesting and usable."

Projects include hanging lights from vintage planters...

Homemade terrariums from mason jars...

And pool noodle chairs among others...
