Wishbone Burner

> Anything can become something else:

One evening while eating my dinner of roast chicken I found a wish bone. Just before breaking it in the traditional manner I noticed a small hole at the apex of the joint. Upon further inspection I found that an incense stick slotted perfectly into this hole, so with a bit of bleaching, sanding and careful balancing later, I had this neatly poised incense burner that shifts its weight as the incense burns away.

This is  just a simple example of how we are constantly surrounded by objects that can have a myriad of uses if just a little lateral thinking is applied.
