<p>[QUOTE=&quot;HippAntiques, post: 797275, member: 10921&quot;]I think that taking a perfectly good antique and ruining it for repurposing is horrible. But, if it&#039;s all beat up and not salvageable, then &quot;saving&quot; it by turning it into something else can be fun. I deal in books. If somebody were to take a perfectly good book and tear it up to frame, make into a journal, etc, I&#039;d cringe. But if it was super beat up, missing pages, etc.....then I think repurposing it is a great way to make it useable again, rather than tossing it.</p><p><br /></p><p>If somebody found an old dresser that was in great condition, and cut holes in it to make into a sink, I&#039;d cringe. But if the dresser was super beat up and ready for the dumpster, and they repurposed it into something, I&#039;d be fine with it.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think it all depends on the condition of the antique! Don&#039;t RUIN it to repurpose, but taking junk and &quot;saving&quot; it is fine.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
