How would you feel about finding a 77-year-old newspaper under the flooring in your apartment? It took my breath away. I hadn’t even intended to remove that piece of linoleum for awhile, because it was protecting the hardwood in the landing, which takes a daily beating and gets a lot of stuff drug across it. But, I had to remove
“Do you do anything else with the fuel cans that we could use during other parts of the year?” I get this question a lot when I’m selling my Jacks in the fall. And being sort of a people-pleaser, I am trying to oblige. When I was brain-dumping ideas of what to do with vintage fuel cans to break away

He’s a plan guy.
I did something I have never done before: I brought scrap home from the scrap yard and made it into something pretty. I know, you’re supposed to come home with an EMPTY trailer. But it’s OK to break the rules every now and then, right? It IS, especially when it could be profitable. The scrap yard is where I take
It’s all the rage these days. Repurpose an old grain bin into a gazebo, outdoor kitchen, bar, family hangout, whatever you want to call it. First, a bit of a history lesson. I know, I’m totally boring. I love knowing the history behind ALL the junk. It’s part of my personality…one of my top five strengths is Input, which means
