The cube shape remains popular in ready-made house furnishings. What better way to acquire needed furniture than to make it from what you already have? Take a sturdy box and cover it with fabric, paint or paper. Doesn't it look like an end table, coffee table or a good place to serve snacks? You might do up several boxes at a time and let your children use them in their rooms. They're so easy to move that they can be used for chairs, tables or dividers - all in the same day. Fruit and vegetable crates are another kind of box that can have a future. Imagine them as doll cupboards, as nooks for art supplies or even as a small chest of drawers. There's no end to the useful furniture you can design from boxes. And every material you reuse not only saves money, but helps unclutter the family storage area and the landfills. .
