Create a Water-Smart Yard

A water-conserving landscape is low maintenance, requires less water, less fertilizer, less routine pruning and fewer pesticides. A well-designed landscape should get better with age, requiring less maintenance, irrigation and mulch. Check out the January issue of Atlanta Home Improvement (online) for "Water-Smart Landscaping." (page 28)

Faux Zinc Metal Cabinet Makeover

I turned a technicolor nightmare of a cabinet into a chalkboard and faux zinc art storage cabinet. Hammered silver paint pounced with craft paper made for a faux zinc patter on the sides and top of the cabinet.
