by Lisa Battisti

Hi everyone - just wanted to introduce myself to the Hometalk community! My name is Lisa. I moved to SC from upstate NY in 2012. Totally enjoying the south!! I love looking at something and see how I can take junk and make it useful. One of my firsts posts was the window frame turned nightlight. Drop me a line for any suggestions you may need. I love Hometalk and this great DIY community. I also am an opossum wildlife rehabber.

    Welcome Lisa! I know you just love that Southern hospitality and all...LOL! Repurposing is a fun and exciting adventure and, sometimes ideas just pop in to your head and then you wonder, where did that come from. And I just love it!
