Repurposed Change Table

This one was a little harder to find inspiration for. Seems many people haven’t really tried or if they have aren’t sharing their ideas.

I did find a few ideas, I guess with these “re-purposing” of items it really is up to your imagination and how creative you can get. Also I think too people re-purpose items into things they need or want more so than what the furniture or item could be used for.  So here goes…

This was the very first repurposed changing table I found and I was impressed.

Check out this Mini Bar on wheels we found via Better Homes & Gardens. This one hasn’t really been changed much by the look of it however a clever idea.

 

Here is another version we found on Curbly.com

This one has had a coat of silver paint and works well as a Mini Bar.

Alternatively you could turn it into one of those kitchen trolleys (of you have room that is) like this one from IKEA.

 

How about a Boys Work bench?

We found this awesome conversion from Ikea Hackers.

I’m sure the little boys out there would LOVE a work bench like Daddy.

They also have a Girls Kitchen version listed HERE also if you’d like to check out that option.

 

The item you have to re-purpose will determine what you can create in many ways.

Here is a different style change table converted into a play kitchen also that we found on  Bonne Nouvelle.

Before images are also shown at the link provided above.

 

 

Here is an idea for your craft items that we found via Infarrantly Creative

Alternatively you could create a spice rack, plate holder etc.

This method used 1 level so for a 3 level change table you could end up with 3 shelving/display units.

 

Again a different style of change table; this one is a drawer style version we found via Helping Little Hands.

I’m sure the boys would love driving their cars all around on here.

Best part is open the draw and pack all the cars away.

You would also add a lego board or train tracks or even create a Dolls house.

 

Here is one for all of those pots, pans and bake ware we found on Morning By Morning.

A cute way to not only store but display kitchen items. You could also use it to display pot plants out under a pergola or under the porch (like a mini Herb or vege garden perhaps)

 

You don’t have to keep the change table in tack to get use out of it.

How about cutting it in half or in 3rds?  Check out this idea we found here.

Great idea for a Hall table or for an entrance way. I think I need one so I can put my keys on the same place every time…lol

 

And If your really stuck for an idea and don’t want to throw it out you can always use it for keeping baby chicks

Check out this Chick Brooder we found Weksny Acres

 

This is box title
I hope I have been able to inspire you to re-purpose your old Changing table. If you have or intend on re-purposing any furniture please share with us. Which one is your Fav idea?- Jess x
