I Love My Green Planet

We wanted to make this circa 2005 plain vanilla fireplace

an interesting focal point on an otherwise long, boring wall in our condo.

If you have a large bowl, some of your favorite country fabric,

and some time you can make this “Fun and Functional” bowl!!

Making sure the bowl was clean, I ironed some of the fabric I needed. Then I cut them and ripped the rest into strips.

“OLD?” It’s all in how you decide to “mature.”

Out of necessity, I removed the steps built by a Contractor and built new ones – the right way! In the process,

I discovered that I LOVE building, and I’m excited to be starting more building projects – at 71 (and I’m a girl)! Here we go…. First pic is what the Contractor built for me.

If you like to keep a good book by the bed,

or store anything bedside, this easy repurpose project is right up your alley!

have some nightstands by the bed, but this guy can store much more and is an easy arms reach beside you! You can grab a cheap over the door organizer, and with a simple cut down the middle and some grommets and ribbon create a great bedside storage unit. This will give you storage on

Earlier this year I asked for suggestion

for creating a separating wall between neighbors.

My neighbor ran a cable from my garage to the house.
