Creative reuse is the process of taking used or recycled materials and turning them into a creative pieces of art, home decoration, or other useful items.
Although typically associated with creating something from throwaways from commercial offices, creative reuse projects can be big or small and can be made from anything that would otherwise have been thrown away. Creative reuse can be items or artwork that are sold for profit, for non-profit causes, or just for fun.
There are several creative reuse centers in the United States, such as the East Bay Depot in Berkeley, California, the Creative Reuse Warehouse in Chicago, Illinois, The Long Beach Depot for Creative Reuse in Long Beach, California and Fresh Heirlooms Construction Junction in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and SCRAP in Portland, Oregon. Others exist in the United Kingdom.
Another way creative reuse comes into play is through environmentally friendly gifts or "green gifts". Buying eco-friendly gifts made from recycled materials and hand-crafted into something unique and useful is becoming a chic new and environmentally friendly way to shop for weddings, birthdays, baby showers, and the holidays.
