Piano Turned into a PC case

This is got to be one of the World’s craziest PC case mods EVER! But also kind of amazing as well! With 3 screens and all the wires being internal, this is not as crazy as it first seems.

Piano Turned into a Drinks Cabinet

It seems that an increasing idea that old pianist uses to hide their growing drink problem is to hide it inside an old piano! And it has to be said that it is not a bad idea at all.

Piano Turned Into a Book-case

While it is not the best idea, and certainly not the hardest to replicate, the idea of turning an old piano into a bookcase is one that quite a few people seem to do.

Piano Turned Into a Bookshelf

Unlike number 8 this idea means you could stick whatever you wanted onto the shelves because the only thing people will be looking at is the stunning piano bookshelf you made!

Piano Turned Into an Aquarium

I have a small regret about posting this one, you see I just wish that I knew about it while I was making the post “Aquariums Built Inside furniture” because it is such a great idea turning an old piano into an aquarium that I wish I could do it myself!

Piano Turned Into Art

Really this is 2 ideas in one, not only have these people turned an old piano into an amazing piece of mosaic art displayed in their garden but also turned it into a planter! I like it!

Piano Turned into a Garden Ornament

Much the same as number 5, but without all the fancy artwork, this piano-turned-garden ornament is strangely beautiful in a poetic sort of way. But whatever way you look at it, it’s a simple idea that will surely get some delightful looks as people see it.

Piano Turned into a bed Headboard

While it might not be the most visible of all the ideas we have seen so far it is one of the better ones because making a headboard out of an old piano doesn’t seem that hard and would make a great feature in a music-themed bedroom.

Piano Turned into a Car

Who needs boring old car stereos when you could turn an old piano into some sort of hotrod! Sure this is overkill, but there is no point denying it, it’s an incredible use of a piano!

Piano Turned into a Fountain

You have probably all seen this image a thousand times before and will see it a thousand times after this blog post, but the art of turning an old piano into a garden water feature is nothing short of pure genius, and dare I say it, almost music to my eyes!
