Quilts made from outgrown onesies, benches from cribs, spice jars from baby food containers... how have you re-purposed your old baby and kid items? Please share a photo if you have one.

I came across a pin on how to turn a crib (without completely ruining it) in a play desk. I changed it a little bit and used mine for a daybed. Kind of like those fancy convertible cribs but less expensive.
