Do you sell things at craft shows or vintage markets? I do and I needed a way to display things at these markets. My husband and I designed and made a DIY Folding Display that is perfect for displaying the things that I sell. Our wall folds for storage and it is free standing. I…
I’m joining my Power Tool Challenge Team gals for another fun challenge. This month our theme is modify and I turned a cold war era ammunition crate into a side table. Why did I choose this project? Well, there happened to be a stack of these ammunition crates in our basement and I…
It is finally starting to look and feel like fall in my area. It’s still been blazing hot but the mornings have had a hint of cool in the air giving us a taste of what is to come. Over the weekend I had some time for a DIY project, my first since going back…
If you do any crafting at all, a glue gun is most likely a tool that you own. Glue guns come with a built-in metal stand that I’ve found doesn’t work well; It’s annoying to be in the middle of a craft project using a glue gun that won’t stay upright. A few years ago…

For this month’s Power Tool Challenge, I made a DIY Footstool. Actually, I made two and they are so useful! When we are at the lake, we love to relax on the deck in rocking chairs or on the dock in Adirondack chairs. My preferred way to relax is with my feet up, so these…

I started collecting wooden tennis rackets years ago thinking that I’d use them at the lake as wall decor. I still may execute that idea but…
