More DIY Crafty Goodness

Sample carpet squares, purchased for 1 dollar each at the most awesome & local East Bay Depot for Creative Re-Use, can be cut up & used as liners for wooden toolboxes, saving the bottom from wear & tear.

What else can be purchased at the Depot? You never really find much of the same thing twice there, but they sell metal tins, glass vials, paper towel rolls, old records, fabric, picture frames, glass jars, odd containers, plastic prescription bottles, industrial cardboard yarn cones, plastic spools, candles, burlap coffee bean sacks, and ten thousand other used things that defy easy description but can be used for crafts. All at the cheapest prices imaginable. And they accept as donations things that we'd normally throw away or toss in the recycling can, things like plastic strawberry baskets, cardboard toilet paper rolls, wooden brie rounds & clean peanut butter jars.
