There is always a good reason to buy a new pair!

As a result, many old pairs of skis are found in attics and cellars ...

Fortunately, there are some ingenious ways to recycle old skis and give them new life.

Here are 18 ways to recycle your old skis and give them a second chance. Look :

1. In clothing display

To make a recycled ski clothing display, you need 3 skis, a threaded rod (40cm × diam: 2cm), 2 end nuts of the same diameter, 4 sets of threaded rods (4 cm × diam: 6 mm), 8 nuts of the same diameter and a drill to make holes in the skis

This clothing rack was spotted in a store in New York City. If you don't have such pretty skis, you can also paint them by spraying paint on them. The monochrome effect will be very trendy.

You can see above, how the skis are joined by the threaded rod and the nuts.
