We have an old electric water heater and stove, how can I use them instead of throwing them away?

    Could you possibly lay it down in a certain area of your yard, place stakes into the ground at each corner to keep it in place and make pillows for it to make it into a seating area? They could be attached using some velcro on tank and pillow in precise spots. I can envision painting it in stripes or a bright color and just decorating it in a fun way. Maybe add those cinder blocks at the ends to cover the hardware and plant some pretty flowers in the cinder blocks. Good luck! Please post what you decide to do.

      I may just do this. We are planning a gazebo project in November and this would be great under it. The gazebo top is an upcycled old, old 10 foot satellite dish. Having an upcycled water heater would be perfect. Thank you for your response.

    I'd sell them for scrap metal and use the money for a fun project.

    Drag them to a neighbors driveway (preferably one you don’t like ) put a big dollar store bow on them and a Christmas card signed with another neighbors name.
