Glad you saved it! When we put anything at the curb, someone picks it up immediately--once even before we got back in the house! :)

Kay that is to funny-I thought I was the only who gets crazy urges in the middle of the night. Because I get tired of the same decor I re-purpose alot, then I don't feel so bad when I get tired of a piece. My whole sewing is re-purposed with the exception of my cutting table.

What a great idea! Glad you made it to the curb before anyone else got your treasure!

Since we live way out in the country and can't leave stuff at the curb for "free" pickup, all my "stuff" goes to our barn out back. My kids are the only ones allowed out there to plunder, so I can make sure it goes out to someone I love and want to have it. But, like you, Kay, some of my best ideas come to me in the middle of the night--I just won first place on a quilt at the county fair that I spent many a night pondering what to do, and how, in the making of it.

Smart Move.. I probably wouldn't have bothered dressing... lol. Just thrown on a coat and ran out the door. I try hard to repurpose anything I have. Right now an older oak wall unit is book/mag/stuff storage. Beats buying another industrial unit for $80 bucks.

I doubt I would have taken the time to get dressed. LOL I'd probably go out in my nightie to fetch it back.

We had one of those heavy oak bed walls with the mirror on the back and cabinets on both sides. When we moved and I no longer wanted it for a bed we took the mirror out of the middle, put a clothes rod between the two cabinets and put it in the closet. It's wonderful storage because it has three shelves in the top cabinets and three drawer below that. It fit so nicely in there it looks like it was made for it. Love repurposing.

I have solved many problems in the middle of the night. Its just wonderful to wake up in the night and out of no where this idea pops up. And you know its the answer to your problem. It always amazes me how God has given me such a amazing mind that works like that.
