Drop leaf table - upcycle project? (Colchester CO3)
This mid-century table is destined for the dump unless someone wants to take on an epic upcycle project. It was used in the shed for storage and has succumbed to damp and mold. It has also been in the garden for a few weeks.

Broken Nerf X shot -role play gun (Colchester CO3)
Unfortunately this got jammed and some heavy-handed work led to this blue part coming out of the gun. It no longer works as intended and I’m doubtful it could be fixed The magazine part that holds the foam ‘bullets’ seems fine. Maybe someone might want for role play or as a prop, possibly sprayed a different colour?

Over the cot changing mat (Colchester CO3)
Gifted
A little damage to one end (could be taped up or placed at the head so can’t be seen). The feet that keep it in place over the cot need to be attached. I believe one or two screws may off snapped. New screws and basic DIY skills needed to fix. This and a previous one really saved my back when my children were small.

Blue hangers from dehumidifier bags (Colchester CO3)
Expired
Approx 25 of these from dehumidifier bags. I’m sure there are many useful things they could be used for; hanging bags off a rail, hanging little ones paintings to dry... As per original use they are strong and can hold a fair amount of weight. I don’t think they can be recycled and thought someone could make use of them instead of sending them to landfill.
