All I can tell you is to put out an APB… All Points Bulletin… to all of your friends. For years, Deb and I have this agreement with friends.  If one of us NEED something regarding a home improvement project, just text.  We will all keep our eyes out for the item.  I will never […]

I already shared that we are going to give this backyard at the rental a makeover on a budget.  We love being outside and love lots of different areas to hang.  This backyard isn’t functional AT ALL.  We love vegetable gardens, fire pits, barbecue areas, etc.   And since we will be here all summer, it […]

Well…   Plans sure do change at the drop of a dime, don’t they?  We truly thought our new build would have at least been started by now.  We were hoping we would be in there doing our finishing work by mid-summer.  And moving in by the end of summer.   But, we finally admitted to ourselves […]

Vintage Cookbook Holder Makeover I picked up this little ditty at a flea market for $2.00 and could hardly contain my excitement because I knew that $2.00 was a bargain.  I, also, knew that painting it would make it look completely different.  ????????‍♀️  What doesn’t look better with a coat of white paint?  I’m sorry that I have […]

  Make-up Storage Idea One of the biggest repurposed projects we’ve accomplished to date is our bathroom vanities.  Both of our vanities were something different.  The vanity in the full bathroom was once an antique buffet that I picked up on a garage sale site.  When you convert a piece of furniture into a vanity, […]
