The most fun and creative way to recycle damaged things is to find something new to use them for. An old shoe, for example, is fashionable to use as a container to grow plants in outside. It works especially well with hens and chickens plants.
Another prospective idea is to try to fix it. Since it is already broken it won't harm anything to look up on ehow.com or Google ways that you could do repairs. If you already bought something new, it will give you ideas on how to maintenance the new item and it is always possible to sell the old one once it is in working condition.
The third opportunity is to recycle it if you cannot find a new use. This way it won't pollute the planet and someone else can use the materials.
