Repurposing is Wonderful!

Hi all!

I just have to take  a minute to brag on Dustin Davis Benac and his carpentry, creativity skills.
As I am about to start at Dallas Theological Seminary with the Biblical Counseling program, we realized I was in need of a study space. "But not just any study space, it has to be cute!" So, thanks to Pinterest.com (which is amazing and slightly addictive), I found a picture of a desk made of 4 or 5 planks of old wood. Low and behold, we had some old wood in our garage. Actually, we had the remains of a picket fence our neighbor decided to throw out. I wish everyone could have had a good laugh at Dustin and me shuffling down the alley in the dark with parts of a fence. And now, thanks to some creativity and a late night cutting 45 degree angles into wood I have a CUTE desk! There are so many ways to repurpose what is thrown away; let's get creative people.  Enjoy and thanks again Dustin!
