Use Your Left Over Potato Water in the Garden.
Don't throw out that left over potato water. Put it to use in the garden. Be sure it is unsalted (salted water will hurt your plants.)
Pour it on the garden near your plants.Starchy potato water will spur the release of plant nutrients in the soil so it makes a great addition. (plants like starch better than your figure does!)

Gardening: Peonies
Should the greenery of the peony be cut after it has bloomed? If so, when would be the best time to cut?

Thank you for all your help in answering my question. I certainly appreciate the information.
Tammy, can you tell I have a new baby granddaughter that I came up with that idea? LOL
I have a couple other ideas.
1. Using it as purchased with a few alterations to hide your TV behind while not in use. Again spraying the inside of the glass with Looking Glass spray paint only this time giving it an aged look. And, if it's possible, depending on how much separation is between the doors change them into two bi-fold doors so they could be opened when needed. ]
2. Since you mentioned you'd love it as a head board without storage, I'd most definitely try to remove the front then spray the backs of the glass as mentioned in # and secure it all to a plywood backing, add legs and there's your headboard. That or the upholstered areas where the glass are now as mentioned by Andie.
