At Kudos, we made the first and only disposable diaper with a 100% cotton liner. Visit: mykudos.com/blogs/news/my-experience-with-reusable-cotton... to know my experiences with reusable cotton diapers and also get the best information about reusable cotton diapers.
I re-purposed one of my used Graze.com trays into a handy propagator for some herb seeds - oregano, thyme, chives and coriander.

The 3rd Annual Fashion Trashion event at the University of Minnesota, Morris. This event is run by the Studio Art folks, who have students in the intro 3-D studio course create costumes out of recycled, reused, or repurposed materials. This is a always a huge success, with lots of really creative work and a ton of fun for the audience.
Jess Larson is the MC, Jennie Nellis taught the course this year, and the judges are Troy Goodnough (Sustainability Coordinator), Jennifer Deane (History), Jacquie Johnson (Chancellor), Ray Schultz (Theatre), and Hilda Ladner (Multi-ethnic Programs)

This old sewing machine base was in poor shape. David added a reclaimed fir top and brought it back to life.
DW's been using this swim diaper for all the times he's been swimming! It's great, the material is soft and it dries fast! More on this nappy at manilamommy.com
Store brand reusable shopping bags upgraded with pockets that conveniently cover up the store logo. Pockets were made from pant legs from thrift store clothing.
This is an idea from the electronic workshop of my university: These circuits are from damaged stuff like a keyboard, a mouse, a cache memory (for a 386 processor!) and a part of a hard disk (?). They make really interesting keychains.
Came out beautiful, reclaimed wood top (built by us) and reused cast iron legs, from the sinks, from a 19-teens former unwed mothers and children's home in Buffalo NY. (a side note: Why was there no home for unwed fathers?...where were they in this situation?...perhaps the Erie County Jail? Maybe a laundry where they could work off their immorality like the ladies might have been apporpriate?)
In our shop at ReUse Action (Reuseaction.com) we fabricate slabs out of the barn beams and building materials we collect from salvage, deconstruction and demolition jobs.
In this project we re-sawed old growth, 3x8 barn joists from Bath NY. They are beautiful old growth southern yellow pine that was cut down in the 1870s-1880s and was hundreds of years old at that time. These trees probably predated the American Revolution. I count about 120 rings per 8 inches!
The slab was built and finished with satin, water-based polyurethane. Nail holes, checks and divots were filled to a high level of finish with West System, clear epoxy.One can see to the bottom of the holes.
The cast iron base was reclaimed from a bathroom of the former unwed mothers and children's house on Harvard Place in Buffalo. It was built in the 19-teens and these legs were ganged together and held up back to back cast iron sinks. We stripped them and repainted them with satin enamel and dry brushed them with pewter paint to highlight the graininess and the embossed letters and other interesting details from the casting.
The distance between the legs was shortened and the threaded rods were shortened and re-threaded to match the length of the table. Matching feet were made and added to the bottom of the legs and levelers were added. The old square head nuts and bolts were saved, cleaned and re-used to preserve the original look.
It is on display in our store and available for $950 in the store. We bases to make 2 more of these, to any length and custom widths and other wood tops. See reuseaction.com

Hubby and I made a recycling run to Centralia today. After unloading other recyclables, we were left with four stumps to unload onto this pile of yard waste. This pile will eventually be run through a shredder and then turned into compost.
no fee for repro.

Read what the barrel behind the Roseate Spoonbill said and thought it quite the message.

This mirror frame was built up from random pieces of scrap molding, siding and whatever else I could find.

I love the little vinyl onesie packages for re-packing them as a gift or for shipping. The gift box in the background is recycled, too...with the same style onesie inside.
I love using MOO cards as hang-tags, too.
