Do you have a boat and don’t know how to recycle it? We will give you some ideas from which you can create great things!
Whether you are a fishing enthusiast who no longer goes boating, or you just found this one old boat that has intrigued you and to whom you want to give a second life, do not despair. There are so many creative ways to recycle a boat and we will show you some that can fit your “ropes”. You can’t imagine how many things you can create by recycling a simple old boat!
1. Planter
If you have a garden and you want to give it a creative touch, but are you tired of the usual planters created by recycling old tires, your boat can be a valid substitute. Obviously you could leave it in its natural color by giving it just a coat of polishing, or you can sand it and repaint it in the color you like best.

If you are a color lover and you just can’t decide which one to paint it on, why not choose them all and give your boat a rainbow effect? In fact, you could give each strip of your boat a different color, to have an ultra-colorful final result spirited!
If you don’t have a garden where you can set up your own planter, don’t worry because we give you an alternative. Rather than placing your boat in the garden as if setting out to sea, you can set it up vertically in a corner of your home or balcony. A few shelves will suffice and you will have enough space for your outdoor or indoor plants depending on where your boat will go.
2. A completely original library
Anyone in the house has at least a small corner of the house dedicated to their collection of books, large or small. However, not everyone has thought of making one library recycling a boat, so yours will surely be an alternative library that is certainly original and creative! With a creative eye you will be able to see that the “skeleton” of your boat is a perfect home for your books. In fact, it presents a kind of shelves natural on you can place your books and various furnishing objects, which will give it a touch of personality. Just paint it, hang it on the wall and your bookcase will be ready!
3. One boat per table
You never imagined creating a table with a boat, right? And yet this is also possible. There bow in fact, your boat could become a perfect wooden table that will give an original character to your entire living room. Paint the bow of your boat, equip it with feet of the same wood and furnish it with one table lamp or other decorative items.

4. A comfortable sofa
There are classic sofas with padded armrests and then there are the creative sofas that you can create with your hands thanks to the art of recycling. You can then create your sofa from scratch by simply recycling your old boat. The process is very simple. You will have to sandblast your boat and then paint it in the color that best matches those already chosen for the rest of your living room. Then equip it with soft cushions and you just have to relax and watch TV on your sofa-boat!

5. The bed of your dreams
If your child would like to feel like a sailor every time he goes to sleep, or you want a bed out of the ordinary, a boat is just what you need. For the room of the most little ones, to give it a nautical touch repaint the boat white with blue stripes that follow the outline of the boat and build a bow for the bow helm that your baby can play with before going to bed.
Alternatively you can leave the wood-colored boat by simply giving it a glossy finish, a mattress in it and one pirate flag on the bow!
For an adult bedroom, on the other hand, the paint on the boat should be decided based on the style of the room and the rest of the furniture. For example, if it is a room in style shabby chic, repaint the boat in white which is then sanded to give it that “neglected” furnishing look as style requires.
If, on the other hand, yours room is in nautical style, it will be enough to give your boat a coat of white paint and paint on it maybe the icons of small rudders on one side of the boat, or on the contrary paint the whole boat of blue and the white stripes.
6. A work of art
If what’s left of your boat is just his wreck and therefore you have only few pieces to be able to recover, we have the solution to this too! If I created a painting for your living room or bedroom? Just glue them side by side and arrange them in one frame in bronze for example, and you will have your own work of art that will give a unique imprint to the environment!
