Goal for the Day: Make the Most of Leftovers

Sometimes, we can do wonderful things with leftovers. The extra food from meals can be repurposed into something delightful. Similarly, the scraps left behind from just about anything can be re-used for great purposes. Take the slag glass below, for example. Had that been discarded as simply “left over glass,’ we’d not have the attractive sculptural form that we do.


Whether you’ve got leftover lumber, food, paint, cardboard, or, frankly, just about anything else, you can always find a purpose for it. Who knows what you can create if you use a little creativity.
