Transform an old book into a pretty box for trinkets and other small items with this easy-to-make project. Apply craft glue to the inside back cover and close the book; let it dry. Apply glue to the book's edges; let it dry. Mark a rectangle on the first page about 1-inch from all sides. Use a craft knife to cut along the mark through several pages. Remove the cut pages; continue cutting and removing pages until you've reached the desired depth. Seal the cut pages with clear glue to finish the keepsake box.

It's always good to have a little help around the house. That's why we love this handy tennis ball helper. Use him to hold your keys, mail, pen, or anywhere you need an extra hand, er, mouth.
To make: Cut a slit in a tennis ball using a box cutter or sharp knife. Add rivets or google eyes. Hang him on the wall by a nail or suction cup in the back of his "head."

10. Old piano turned into outdoor fountain
(Idea by Bill Metzgar) This piano is an 1885 Steinway. It had really bad termite damage to the inner structure so yes, it was beyond repair. It was turned into a fountain for Bill's mom for Mother's Day. It has a 2000 gallon per hour pump in the pond and a flex hose from the pump up into the piano where a construction of pvc pipes was used to distribute the water across the keys. It was sealed with fiberglass resin.
11. License plate birdhouse
The early bird may get the worm, but if you change your license plates that bird wins a new house. This calls for a sleep in.
(Idea by Curt and Jessica of Grizzl Bear Modern) This vintage hardwood dresser was abandoned in the garage and then converted into this cool piece of art.
