    Reuse it to store loose recipes or snacks in the kitchen. Repurpose it to store desk supplies on a desk (post-its, pens, ruler, tape, stapler, envelopes, paper clips, etc.) and close it when inquisitive hands come near Repurpose it to hold your TV controller, telephone book, cell phone, notebook, paper and pen, etc. on your end table in the den. Repurpose to your bath to hold makeup, men's personal products, hair care supplies, wash clothes, hand towels, guest towels, etc. Repurpose it to your bedroom to hold your pocket items extra credit cards, jewelry, personal items (deodorant, lotions), facial tissues, etc. Repurpose it to store small plant supplies like seeds, fertilizer, bug deterrents, identification stakes, a marker, nippers for trimming/cleaning near your display stand or in a convenient location. Store your small gaming supplies like dice, paper and pen, cards, dominoes, jacks, etc. Use it as a mailbox for family members, grandchildren, etc. when they come to visit.

    Anything you need to store and keep handy. Use it like an extra drawer. I use a wooden roll-top bread box for my cords.

    I took the back off of mine & use it as a docking station for my electronics. I love not having to look at wires, etc.!
