You may remember I’ve been attending classes at Maker 13, a local maker space where you can take classes and then use the machines on the premises. I knew very little about a CNC shop bot router before taking the class where I cut out this fun routed FAMILY sign. I’d love your ideas about adding photos to the rustic framed sign.
Talk of the Town #77 features a fun table made from a drawer, a jewelry display, bar stool makeover, reclaimed bench, and how to make bottle cap magnets. Our featured blogger is Quinn from Dad, What’s 4 Dinner. I hope you find something to inspire you to do a project this weekend.
Here’s a redo of a redo! It doesn’t happen often, but this is an old project I did in 2009, and now I’ve updated it and gave it a new look. It was a nightstand, then a t.v. stand, now it’s a small chest great for a guest room OR a coffee station in a small kitchen.
What a lovely planter we have to share with you today. A hanging planter that is made from cedar scraps. Leave it to Mindi to make something so darn cute out of scraps. This would look oh so pretty on my DIY Picket fence! So funny how Mindi and I think alike. I have been toying with something very similar, but couldn’t quite figure out how to make it work….
I am so excited to share this month’s Power Tool Challenge project. The theme was Summer Fun, and I DID struggle with trying to figure out WHAT to make. But when I figured it out, I ran with it and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out! I made a portable diy pallet bar. It’s so easy to set up, store and transport for on-the-go parties and functions. I did a little video so you can see exactly how easy it sets up.
I picked up a $5 vintage drawer and with a scrap piece of wood, paint and glaze, it’s now ideal for a small wall shelf, or a shelf to rest on a console or library table. I found a new glaze and I’m loving it so much, I can’t stop using it.
