      Loved seeing them all here... I was also surprised that some of them were in 2015... where did this year go?!
      I guess for you it flies when you're having fun... CRE-ATING something from nothing.
      Merry Christmas Gail!

      Gail I love how you can take something that most people would walk by and turn it into something beautiful! I am trying to be more like you. Sometimes I find something and my husband looks at me like I am crazy but after I do what I want to it, he is a believer. Thank you for all your inspiration. Have a Merry Christmas and a Healthy New Year and thank you for all of your ideas.

      Well a year end post makes me have to pick my own fav's. I'm gonna go with the headboards turned into shelves. No wait, that chest made from the desk was amazing. Or, I'm changing my mind, the storage bench made from a dresser, yeah I pick that one. But I also gotta say Mindi's dog crate was over the top clever, so yeah, I'm picking the dog crate too.
