We are moving into a smaller house which requires creative interior design and also making use of every space for storage. We have a wonderful old piece of furniture and no place to put it, so we decided to use it as the TV stand, but it would require some modification. We took out the two large drawers, made two shelves where they used to be, so that we would have a place for the blue ray, satellite box, etc. and now we are using the "leftover" drawers upstairs under a bed as storage units.

An old, unrepairable upright piano can be repurposed into a unique desk with some time and creativity. This is a page about turning a piano into a desk.
