Chicago, IL I'm loving that clock idea ... I adore giant clocks and that could be a cool idea for my family room inspiration! Steve G Fort Collins, CO Wait, you're supposed to retire old bikes at some point? Sandy R Hammond, IN Wondeful ideas, that I never thought of Carmel P Lexington, KY I LOVE that clock - so clever! Sara @ House Bella Hailey, ID Love that clock with the red hands! Meg D Shelbyville, KY The clock is pretty cool! I'll have to try that Meg D Shelbyville, KY The clock is pretty cool! I'll have to try that Becky H Tampa, FL Love your ideas. My son is a biker, and I see a few things I'm going to have to try! BrightNest Denver, CO Thanks everyone! Please send us pictures when you try the bicycle hacks. We'd love to see them! Steve G Fort Collins, CO On a related note, does anyone have any bright ideas for old bicycle tires? They are too thin for planters or any of the other car tire ideas on here. I just replaced the tires on one of my bikes, and in my packrat maddness, I can't seem to throw away any of the old ones. Sacha Olivier Beverly Hills, CA Very Cool! Check out what i did with an old bicycle rim. http://once-upon-a-time-sacha.blogspot.com/2... Steve G Fort Collins, CO Sacha, that is pretty cool. You should post it as a new project so more people will see it (if you haven't already). Sacha Olivier Beverly Hills, CA Thanks Steve G! Will give it a try. BrightNest Denver, CO Sacha - Great project! Sacha Olivier Beverly Hills, CA Thanks BrightNest! NOTE: You can drag and drop your photos to reorder them Required Comment Saving...
