Waste Not, Want Not, or something like that

I enjoy finding ways to recycle materials in fun and practical ways. The recent construction of additions to the church building next door has made available some interesting scrapped materials. I took some of the insulated Styrofoam building materials and made a cold frame by placing the old skylight from the torn down addition on top as a lid (see the accompanying picture of lettuce that will soon be harvested). The rest of the Styrofoam building material will become a temporary home for hardening off plants that I am growing indoors under lights. But, today those scraps became the building materials for a makeshift stable for my two little ponies (see grandchildren picture). What fun and how practical!
