DIY Life

I was inspired by a recent blog post and I followed that lead in the pursuit of thinking up uses for old socks. Every time we use an item for just one idea beyond it's original manufactured intent, we have increased the validity of that manufacturing act. Whether you think so or not, reusing an item just once reaffirms your respect for the entire manufacturing process from raw material to finished goods.

Yeah, it may sound stupid to some people but that just goes to show how little those people really understand their own affect on this world. If you use a Styrofoam egg carton as a paint tray for your child, you have thereby doubled the validity of that egg carton's manufactured existence, strange but true.
