Today’s pallet porn: Wine racks made from pallet wood.
That’s three recurring Unconsumption themes — pallet-, wine-, and storage-related repurposing — all rolled into one photo!

DIY project du jour:
Shoe box + toilet paper tubes (and/or paper towel tube pieces) = storage for pens and other office/art supplies

More paper tube repurposing ideas: here.
Do you have a handful of old keys — from, say, apartments where you once lived, cars you no longer own, or some other use — sitting in a drawer?
Here’s something to consider making from them: A holder for usable keys or other small items.
Bend the old keys and attach them onto a piece of scrap wood. Basic DIY — find a brief tutorial on the Get Rich or DIY Tryin’ blog.
Do you remember this clever use for empty CD/DVD containers?
Well, here’s another reuse idea — as storage for spools of ribbon. How practical!

Display? Storage? Why not?
A related idea, from an earlier Unconsumption post:

Turn an old dresser into a bench with built-in storage — remove the legs, add cushions.

Have you come across clipboards — perhaps vintage, or maybe not so old — at resale shops and yard sales?
Here’s an idea for their reuse: Clipboards make great hangers for displays of photos and small works of art (children’s art, anyone?!). A bonus: It’s easy to swap/change out the items you’re featuring.

You can pretty much reuse, recycle, upcycle anything! You just need a lil creativity and you’ll be surprised with what you can come up with!
Actually, we have some dinged & damaged forks and spoons that we keep even though I don’t like using them. Maybe this will serve as inspiration.

Ideas for what to do with empty cereal boxes, continued:
Fold them into … other boxes! The “new” boxes could be used for gift-giving, or keep them to store your own small things.
