It rained a lot in Wisconsin this past weekend, so many of you may have had a DIY weekend inside. To save a little cash on your next project, check out Real Simple’s New Uses For Old Things — it has creative ideas on re-using your everyday household items. Or see this random European site Atelier-v which also has some clever, but kind of odd ideas. Our favorites are the paintbrush door-stop and the cactus pacifier (some kids just can’t break the habit)!
