Now what do I do with all this STUFF?

My goal is to create a brainstorming blog to invite people to help others sort out what they should do with their stuff.

My motivation here is not to save the planet but to breathe new life into old stuff. I’m an old fashion re-cycle-r, my parents grew up during the first depression and we never threw anything out. As a kid I dismantled a few things and in the process created a lot of “stuff”. That is probably why I went to school to be product designer so I have a good understanding of how things are made and how to reshape them into useful items.

I like the challenge of looking at things in new ways, thinking outside the box if you will.

There are a lot of creative people on Etsy and anybody could have an idea for a product that you could make out of "your stuff" a kind of bounce ideas off each other, kind of blog.

A word of advice; it may take a few weeks or longer for some of us to ponder the problem so the longer you wait the better chance you’ll have getting a good idea.

There is the possibility that somebody would come up with a good idea but you as the owner of the “stuff” are not capable or interested in pursuing the idea any further you could make a trade or sell your stuff. This way you can get rid of the “stuff” and keep it from going to the evil landfill.
