New Use for Old Vintage Signs See how this old sign brings new life to a current kitchen. This 28’x40’ sign came from a local store that receives items from establishments closing their doors. Think beyond the original use of an item to take décor from ok to awesome. Submitted by R. Harwood

Reclaim Wasted Space Above Refrigerator Cabinets above a refrigerator are not always easy to access and use. Try taking off the doors and transforming the space from storage use to a display case for your favorite collectibles. Submitted by Gail V.

Bedroom Makeover This customer gave her bedroom a complete makeover, painting the walls a shade of gray and keeping her current bed.
