These two sweet little cherubs were sort of "just sitting there" in another part of the garden. They cried out to be the framing elements of the path to the Coastal Room.

Here he is opening a bottle with his teeth. Must have picked up that trick in one of the local pubs...
... Delicious pantry pests will make you want to say Mmmmmmmm with every tasty mouthful.
Postcard made with pests from rescued USDA Agricultural Yearbook on cereal box. Little did I know the recipient had been served pantry pests before! (not on a dumpster dive, though)
Swap-bot: Quotecard Postcards #24. (The quote was from John Muir: When one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world. The connection to this postcard is purely tangential!)
I had grand plans of making everyone in my family these reusable shopping totes but after this one took me *all day* with two little ones running around underfoot, I settled for just finishing one. It folds up into its own little pocket for storage.
Maybe next year I can give out a couple more...
The ReUse Project began with an idea and creative inertia...then came the flickr group: www.flickr.com/groups/reuseproject/

Recycle, Reuse & Regenerate...
is not just about building bigger recycling box.
It is about educating & creating awareness amongst the masses on the purpose & meaning of recycling! What can be reuse and how to reuse. AND if we recycle & reuse, we will regenerate our world for our children!
Go green ermmm... in this case go YELLOW! :)

I have about a dozen baby jars. So I grabbed three and made them into hanging lamps with some copper wire I got from my neighbor who is a major re-use kind of consumer. I even had some used tea lights left from last year. All re-used materials!
I imagine hanging these everywhere in the trees.

Fabric sample strip together with pieces of an old skort. I'm especially fond of the reuse of the hem.
Reuse of existing tooling is fairly common in toylines, and of course the Binaltech/Alternators line of Transformers was no exception. While I've look at some blatant repaints such as the multiple colours of Meister/Jazz, Tracks, and Smokescreen/Silverstreak/Ricochet, lets look back at a slightly more innocent reuse, Swindle.
I imagine because of the expensive development costs, Takara/Hasbro probably wanted to reuse whatever they could, whenever they could, from the Binaltech/Alternators line. So to squeeze more life of the tooling, Takara/Hasbro started releasing different characters using the same bodies but different heads, the first of many being Swindle here.
Swindle the G1 character, was also a Jeep, albeit yellow, that formed a leg of Bruticus. Clearly this figure doesn't combine with anything, and is simply a repainted Hound with a different head.
The Jeep Wrangler alt mode was probably the first Binaltech/Alternator vehicle to not feature that nifty steering rack, but rather there is a "working suspension" where the wheels are attached to springs that mimic the workings of shocks. Being the Binaltech version, the figure, and by extension vehicle mode, are painted a lovely mustard yellow giving it that authentic automotive showroom sheen.
Perhaps one of the more annoying realities of this reuse is that literally anything they could would be reused, including that laughably small gun that Hound came with. I believe the only reuse figure to ever come with a new weapon was the 2004 WRX version of Smokescreen, only available in the Binaltech line.
As with other Binaltechs, the Jeep Wranger features detailed interiors and working doors - again, meticulous detail has been included to allow these vehicles to compete with the trust 1:24 scale models. Those with sharp eyes will notice that the engine block is not the gun, which is usually the case for these releases. In fact, if memory serves me correctly, I believe this and Ravage (the Jaguar mold) are the only ones with separate weapons not of the engine variety.
Transformation yields a chunky robot with limited articulation, stubby arms and awkward shoulders... a pattern that generally fits all figures in the line with the exception of Sideswipe/Lambor, who has awkward shoulders AND awkward feet. The added bonus of this robot mode is that the chest cavity is obviously empty.. there is no guess work involved. Couple that with the Noisy Cricket that is included, and you get a really goofy looking robot.
Oh well.. at least it's pretty looking

Reduce, reuse, recycle. Look for an object that has been repurposed to give it new life, and make a photo. (@muffett68)
O.K. let me join the Friday night - out of inspiration - club:
the standard reuse of empty bottles as candle holders....
The vanity is furniture my sister didn't want to take with her and the elephants are something she's collected for years. The top shelf has a reused frame and some canvas art that came in a set of 3 at Urban Outfitters that I really didn't want.

The right side of this image was totally dark due to shutter lag, but the end result with the crop and editing is ok I think.

am trying out some of the features of the new android cellphone -- this is another attempt at inverted colors for ANSH scavenger7, using a reusable shopping bag as the subject. more colorful that the trees and snow, eh??. i'll post the inverted one in the first comment box.... on the bag it says the artist who created the design is Marina Kulik
btb, the black dots, streaks and smudges on inverted one are actually these shiny spots on the 'original'
