Free and Easy Drawer Dividers

I love to be organized. I’m not, but I love the idea, the look, the OCD feeling – all of it; I think organizing is da bomb. But I have a family, and no matter how many bins, boxes, containers and labels I implement, the glory and wondrousness of being organized is lost on them. […]
DIY Hockey Storage Rack

I love this post. Actually I love the project, I love that it’s my design and I love how it turned out – the post is just my way to show it off to you. I was recently asked to help out with a couple of fundraisers for some neighbourhood kids. One needed an item […]

DIY Privacy Planters

Do you ever feel like you’re spinning your wheels and getting nowhere? Do you ever NOT feel that way? I apologize for being lax on the blog lately, but it’s not for lack of working – in fact, I have a giant project for you today. Rather, an easy project that I made giant by building […]
