Since moving to Eastern Sydney I have found heaps of things on trash day that can be given a new lease life. Now before you get an image of me sifting through people's bins like a bum I'm more referring to those big collection days they do twice a year where you can get rid of your larger items. Most things just need a new coat of paint and a bit of creativity. I find Paddington is a great suburb to go scouting in and they have dates of these collection days on their council website. If you're not feeling lucky ebay is always good for bargains.
