You'd be suprised by what you can create with a bit of trash!

These stairs are so cool!  At Toronto’s Roarockit Skateboard School, they used skateboard decks to build a stairway.  It appears the decks were custom made for the stairs, but this would be a creative way to upcycle old decks.
I tell people i recycle & create stuff with junk, preloved, found, new used or needed, liquidated stock, or stock that is at the end of its season ranges that will eventually either end in landfill or op shops. So often times when i say this they assumed my creations are well, shit. Im certain my mother assumed this at some stage till i told her i made money and people like this eco sustainability niche stuff.

This post is to show those people that the world is your oyster. Think outside the box. Theres alot you can recreate from trash etc.

Ecoist have created amazing ways to upcycle and jazz up a boring light bulb...esp. love the blender light!!
Ive been dreaming for many many years about a house or industrial apartment building made entirely of recycled trash & treasures. Every apartment room designed differently from the next. Unique.

So i guess I'll go through with what my dream recycled home might be like...lets pretend. (^_^)

The building...may have balconies & a balcony across the moat to the other side (is that the word?)

i kinda like this concept,

I wish the skies would shower...

Its starting to feel like summer again, In a way I hate that feeling...I get dehydrated way to quickly. I'm usually lazy with drinking liquids and eating when it's too hot. You could say im like a cat. They only eat , sleep, trying to use the box, nag, be cranky etc.

It makes me feel like i should move everything into the bathroom and do day to day tasks while sitting in the bath tub. I have an air-con but evil wizards live in there and having lazy cats who like them but as i said are too LAZY or erh dumb to notice them lately, we had 5 running around the walls last night. None of which were attacked or even chased.

Today i'm officially enrolled in Fashion design yet again! Finish up on 2 subjects i dropped last year cos i got sick. Rejoining friends around campus! Yippee! It was cheaper than i realised however diploma subjects wont be and i'll need to resave money for my 8 part trouser dressmakers dummy.

THIS NEXT CHAPTER HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME- THE MONEY RAISED ON THESE AUCTIONS WILL GO TOWARDS QLD FLOOD APPEAL.

I've moved a lot in my time and I'm only 24. The homes or areas i once lived in went underwater or close to being underwater. My hometown [Caboolture] always had a problem with flash flooding. I've never seen it as this bad and hearing my brother was stranded at work, no recent word from my mum, I was worried. As soon as they put my suburb to that list so was my mum. Ha! She called my Aunt called- are you ok? are u flooded yet?
It was only the back half of our suburb that was underwater. Enough about me...
