I'm a believer in the value of reusing "stuff", versus
throwing out and buying all new. Could be the influence of
grandparents who lived creatively through the Great Depression, not to
mention the austerity measures people were tasked with through a couple
of world wars. More than ever, I'm also rescuing and reusing because
it's an important action to break the cycle of throwing out and buying
all new. It helps us keep functioning, quite happily and creatively
without making a dump out of our planet. Now I'm not recommending filling up your house with garbage. I'm just pointing out the beauty of giving existing quality items another chance to shine. Furnishing by recycling, you may call it. Besides
all that, there are a lot of old things with character that I really
like---just as they are. And sometimes I see things that require some help . . . to become lovable. So I jump in and give them the TLC they need. And it's not just about choice of style. Oft times vintage pieces are higher quality in materials and construction!

The three-hook rack pictured above, is made from a 100-year old door removed from my house when we remodeled the back utility room. A previous owner of the home cut a large hole in part of the paneled door to accommodate a clothes dryer ventilation hose and nailed the old door shut, rendering it inoperable for decades. During the remodel, we removed the damaged door, salvaged the unharmed part of the door and used pieces to create this coat rack with a shelf on top. Three hooks were reused from a friend's old house. ~ Now available through Home Again located at 1019 E. 2100 S. in Salt Lake City.
