Sure we […]

The one-afternoon porch swing

I was shocked at how easy this build was! We built not one, but two couch-length porch swings in one afternoon! 

Do you have friends where, even if you haven’t seen them in a decade, when you do get together it’s as comfortable and easy as if you’d seen them yesterday?

That’s my friend Jen.

We went to University together and were sorority sisters (go ΚΑΘ!), and had so much fun getting in trouble together.

Life took us different directions – schooling, marriage, kids […]

Upcycled dresser turned hall tree

In a time when wood prices are crazy and landfills are beyond capacity, let me suggest to you that upcycling / repurposing is the way to go.  Save money, save the environment and have fun creating – like this upcycled dresser turned hall tree!

I love this so freaking much!

I don’t know what to tell you – I’m a genius!!

Okay, an accidental genius, but I’m still taking it because (for once) my idea turned out spectacularly!

See this dresser:

Patio side table (with lights!)

Add solar lights to this simple patio side table build and create a gentle glow on your patio for those warm, summer nights.

This project didn’t turn out quite how I’d envisioned.

I wanted to make a small side table for the patio with an opaque plexiglass top and a warm overall glow coming out from the top and sides.

But I broke the plexiglass.  I broke 3 sheets actually. 🤦🏻‍♀️  So I had to improvise…

I rifled through my wood pile and decided […]

Make your own wood Canadian flag

With Canada Day around the corner, now is a great time to use up scrap bits and make a wood Canadian flag to decorate inside or outside your home. 

There were a lot of likes and comments on my scrap wood mosaic post the other day (thank you so much!), one of which suggested that I use the same technique and make a wood Canadian flag sign.

I have made a wooden Canadian flag in the […]

Simple Cat Ladder

If you have an outdoor cat and a high fence, abundance of coyotes, or he’s just old and not-as-nimble, this simple cat ladder will help.

Popping in for a quick and dirty today (Yeah!)

‘Quick’ post that is in my ‘dirty’ backyard – get your minds out of the gutter! 😂

Mr. Odie, our 8 year old orange tabby is “solidly built”.  I won’t say he’s obese because I believe in “more to love”, but he is about 20lbs which means he is […]
