Sabrina Grant presents as a team of expert crafters transform unused objects into contemporary and functional items.\n\nForty years ago, David and Marion bought a Swiss clock as a souvenir on their honeymoon. Its price led to their first argument, and over the years Marion has been tempted to throw it out, as it is no longer used. But they would love it to be something practical that would remind them of a special time together. Metal sculptor Leigh and carpentry expert Shelley offer rival designs for them to choose between: a transformation into a stunning piece of furniture or an artwork to celebrate their ruby anniversary.\n\nAn old upright piano has been in Kath’s family for around 140 years, but the workings are so worn out that it can’t be mended. Expert woodworker Daisy and interior design crafter Rob now have the chance to offer their ideas as to what it could become. The piano has been an important feature of Kath’s family memories, so the challenge is on to capture its spirit while turning into something different.\n\nKierhardy cruises into the workshop in his campervan – not for its transformation, but because inside are several old skateboards. Kierhardy is passionate about skateboarding and combines it with youth work in his community. Metals expert Titch has a radical idea for the skateboards that he hopes will impress everyone down at the skatepark.\n\nAnd Shelley has a special project of her own to work on. The woodwork specialist’s wife Mags lost her mum recently, and Shelley wants to do something that will give them both something to remember her by. Two vintage cameras that belonged to Mags’s mum are no longer used, but they captured a lifetime of travels and adventures. Shelley designs beautiful pieces of art that bring the cameras back into focus.
