What Would You Do With Your Old Skateboard?

This looks colorfully nice!
Artist Haroshi made this nice looking sculptures from old skateboards.
Well I turned my old skateboard into a bottom plate for my balcony plants, I'm just sayin... ;)
Go the the flickr site to see more sculptures or check out the "In progress" clip below.

Skate decks eventually see its life shortened by snapping, cracking and/or wearing out.
Purchasing new decks is a never ending cycle and this was evident by the tower of old
decks that were reaching to the ceiling of my room. We can’t throw away these decks
because they hold sentimental meanings to us. I looked at these unusable decks every day
and thought there must be something I can make with these.
I decided to make some accessories with the old decks
and this was the birth of Harvest - Haroshi
