Sometimes the best ideas come from using an item is a way that it's "not supposed to be use". Here are 5 ideas of ways to creatively use ideas in your decor:
1. Using a dresser or table as a bathroom counter
With a little work, you can easily incorporate a sink into an old piece of furniture. This helps to add a bit of age (in a good way!) into your bathroom and avoid the "cookie cutter" built in vanity look. Just make sure it's the right height!

2. Use a thin strip of backsplash tile as "grout"
Accent the area in between your tiles instead of the tiles themselves. This creates a really unique look with a little bit of sparkle on the floor. You would still grout this between the backsplash tiles and the larger tiles.

3. Use an antique architectural element for a headboard
This is another great way to incorporate antiques into your design. The "headboard" below is from an old window frame but window panels, doors, shutters, or even fire places would make a beautiful statement. Make sure to measure how wide your bed is and choose proportionally and make sure to mount your antique securely to the wall!

4. Use a branch as a clothes hanger
In a cramped apartment with no closet space? Try working your wardrobe into your design. This idea took an old branch, spray painted it white and hung it from the ceiling. It makes a beautiful display, and you can choose which clothes to hang and can change the color pallet out easily and switch the feel of your room!

5. Use an outdoor lantern as an indoor chandelier
This is an easy enough idea but it can completely change the look of a space and add an unexpected element into your room.
