These days my email inboxes are on overload, some of which are unwelcome spam. However an email that I always look forward to is Friends of the Earth ‘Tip of the day’ and recently they made me aware about a fantastic website that is encouraging people to turn junk into treasure:

Junkk.com has some great features including an online JunkkYard, Forum and an inspirational Ideas section which provides details of how to make items such as plant irrigation systems to dumbbells using junk material

So as my daily tip from FOW said “before you bin anything, stop! Find out if there is another use for your junk, and save money, time and the planet.”

I would love to hear what junk that you have managed to turn into treasure.
