Knife blocks. They aren’t just for knives anymore.
OK, this one is still for knives. But it looks a lot better than it did when it started! From Ronja at Nur Noch.
Cute right? And now lets talk about other uses for knife blocks:
– Firewood
– Door-stopper
– Yoga Blocks (advanced yogis only)
– Makeshift car jack
– Fun game of Catch the Knife Block
– Weapons to fend off intruders if all of your knives happen to be in the dishwasher
Or, if you would rather have a “good” idea that “makes sense” and is “practical” then here’s one from Serena at Thrift Diving.
That is pretty great. Crayon and craft storage! Such a genius idea. I would make one and fill it with pens and call it Writer’s Block, and give it to my author friends. I don’t have any author friends. But if I did, I would.

November 15, 2014 at 10:45 PMSo weird! I was literally at Goodwill yesterday thinking, “Every time I come here I see a bazillion cheap knifeblocks….I wonder if anyone has thought of a way to re-purpose them?”. Then I log into your site as usual, and bam–this is here!
