    DIY Tin Can & Wood – Bee Decoration

    September 12, 2019 /

    Today’s post is about a bee I created out of a few tin Dr Pepper cans and some scrap wood. Forth of July was over and my mantel was all decked out in red, white and blue. I needed to change my mantle decor but Fall was still a little ways off. I wanted something that is still summery, yet would lead into the fall theme. My first thought was sunflowers of course, but I didn’t really like the idea of sunflowers being the main theme. I have a little sign that I purchased at Hobby Lobby that simply says “be kind” and then came the “Ah Ha!!! Moment”. Bee’s…

    MÖLKKY (Finnish Lawn Game)

    August 28, 2019 /

    Today we are posting about the game Mölkky (a Finnish Lawn Game) that we made out of an old tree. If you follow our posts, you may have seen the amazing corn hole game my son’s father-in-law so thoughtfully made for us. We are so grateful, and knowing that he really enjoys corn hole, we wanted to create an outdoor game for him in return. At first, we were going to make a set of “Giant Jenga Blocks” but Sarah (his daughter) said they already have a Jenga game. While searching for a game we could make, I ran across Mölkky and thought it sounded perfect! Mölkky is a Finnish…

    Giant Lawn Dice Game

    August 21, 2019 /

    Today’s post is about our giant lawn dice game we made ourselves. The set in our video is a bit sentimental to me because it was among our very first DIY wood projects. It is also sentimental because we made it for Tori and Javi’s wedding. Please excuse all the imperfections you may notice in the spacing of the dots on the dice. This project would have been amazingly simple if we owned a drill press, #GOALS! We made our dice from a 4×4 post. Supplies & Tools Saw Electric drill 1/2 inch drill bit Sander Black paint 4×4 post 4×4 posts actually only measure 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″.…

    DIY Giant Jenga Game

    July 25, 2019 /

    Today we are going to share our DIY giant Jenga game. We actually made this Jenga game four years ago because Tori wanted giant outdoor games for her wedding reception. Originally we left the wood raw. When we decided to do a video showing how we made the Jenga we decided to add stain and make a designated table for the game. Tools & Supplies ( For Jenga) Saw Orbit sander or sandpaper (we used 220 grit) Measuring tape 5 – 2″x 3″ x 8′ studs (cut & sand 48 @ 7 5/8″ each) A stain of choice (we used three different colors) Gloves Old rags for staining Click the…

    DIY Cement Table Top

    July 17, 2019 /

    Today’s post is about our DIY cement table top project. In a previous post, we revealed our kitchen table transformation of a table we got free off of craigslist. This is the transformation of our very, VERY old kitchen table. There is not enough room inside our house to use the old table. Our grown kids liked the table because all eight of us fit around it. The table is very ugly but it is also very sturdy. We decided it would be a fun project to transform it into an outdoor table. The table is made of wood and I knew just one winter would destroy the table as…

    DIY Tree Stump Planter

    May 29, 2019 /

    Today’s post is about our DIY tree stump planter we made in the stump of our 80-year-old fallen oak tree. The tree was huge!! The original oak covered about ¼-⅓ of our quarter acre lot with it’s branches. It really was an awesome tree. After it split, it was dangerous so we had no choice but to take it down. We decided to leave the stump a little taller than normal and use it in some creative way. In 2015, we made the stump into a table with an umbrella. After four years of exposure to the elements, the table top warped and the tree had started to rot. So…

    DIY Rustic Wood Privacy Screen Fence

    May 22, 2019 /

    I am so happy to share our DIY rustic wood privacy screen fence with you today. About five years ago, a massive oak tree in our backyard split during a storm. Let me tell you, this was no small oak tree! We live on a quarter acre lot and this oak tree shaded about one-third of our backyard. Our Fallen Oak Tree Due to the way, the tree split we were forced to cut the entire tree down. If left there was a risk of it falling on our home. Cutting Down Our Oak Tree After cutting the tree down we ended up with a massive pile of wood rounds.…

    DIY Farm Style Dining Furniture Transformation

    May 15, 2019 /

    Today we are posting about our DIY farm style furniture transformation. I have always loved farm style decorations. In the 1990s, it was called country style. Even back then, buffalo plaid, galvanized metal and chippy wood furniture was a thing. I have to admit, I did go through a modern decorating phase in the early 2,000’s when Crate & Barrel’s CB2 was really popular. All the decor had a very funky almost 1960 hippy look to it. I truly think it appealed to my spontaneous wild side. During this phase of my life, we purchased a very sturdy kitchen table with rolling cane back chairs that we still own. The…

    DIY Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

    May 11, 2019 /

    Today’s post is about DIY Mother’s day gift ideas. As a mother, some of the most meaningful gifts I have ever received were the ones made by my children. Through the years, I have recieved many store bought gifts from my children (and I loved those gifts). The only thing is, now years later I can’t recall very many of those gifts. On the other hand, if you held up one of my cherished gifts handcrafted by one of my kids, I could tell you exactly who made it. Not only that, every time I reminisce about these DIY gifts I revisit the love I felt when receiving them. Now…
