Steel Wagon Wheel Bench

My husband welded this bench for me using one large and 2 matching antique steel wagon wheels and two tractor seats. I painted it and it is now a focal point on our front deck.

My use of shoe bags

I have made so many uses for these, I like the netted ones, I have them in three places now, one in the garage in my storage area that holds all my cleaning things, sprays, attachments, ...»
ect. The next is in the guest room on the back of the bedroom door. This hanger holds all the needs a vistor may need: shampoo, toothpaste, bandaides, playing cards, hair tyes and so on and much more...... and the third is in my office/nana room that holds pens up high and toys down low.

  • This hid an ugly spot in the yard that was in my direct line of vision as I sit on my porch....the sound of the water adds a wonderfully relaxing melody as it attracts birds and other wildlife for my pleasure. 9

BagBox

I had a couple of wine boxes that I didn't want to throw away because they were so sturdy. This idea came about by accident actually because one of the boxes ended up where I unpack ...»
groceries. I just stuffed a plastic grocery bag in the top hole of the wine box to get it out of my way. Gravity did it's job and the bag fell to the bottom where I saw it poking out the hole at the bottom where the spigot was. Pulled it out and Voila! Sparked me a new idea and project. I've made several of these for gifts. It fits just about anywhere and keeps those bags contained. It holds tons of 'em! When you put the bags in one at a time, they come out one at a time every time! p.s. I covered them with a generic contac paper I already had and used cards and magazine pictures for decoration. I then covered the entire thing with shipping tape! Very easy!

    consider viable real estate for females. That means he's comfortable enough with his 'offering' to her. I've had betas in so many freaky, weird and 'green' environments that I've forgotten. Let's not forget why we are so fascinated with these great little fish in the first place!

Our mirror mosaic fence. We had a blast creating this. Amazing what can come from a broken mirror mishap.
