    Hardwood Floors With A Twist

    September 5, 2023 /

    When we built this house some 18 years ago (where did the time go!) we had the same berber carpet put in all the bedrooms. Fast forward those 18 years and it was time to change our bedroom flooring. The other bedrooms see very little traffic so they will probably outlast us.

    Christmas In August?? Making Wooden Candles

    August 13, 2023 /

    No definitely not. In fact I don’t even like Christmas in December if you must know. What I do like is making things. All kinds of things. Even Christmas ornaments in August.

    I had some free time while Jim was busy in the workshop so I decided to make some wooden candles for the tree.

    Painted Drop Cloth Pillow Covers

    August 4, 2023 /

    I’ve been on the hunt for new 20 x 20 pillow covers for the sofa for months. First I checked local then the real search began on the internet. Everything was either too plain, too dark, to busy, or more commonly… too expensive. I did find one set I liked but they were over $80. Just for pillow covers, not actual pillows! I can find a lot of things to spend $80 on but not pillow covers. Especially when I can make my own for much less.

    Got a request from clear across the country in Calgary for one of our wooden Nova Scotia maps. The one he chose was the New Nova Scotia Wood Map with a lighthouse scene painted on the map, except larger. If I recall, Jim said it was to be a Christmas present for his wife who is from Nova Scotia. Glad to help, and time to get to work. Christmas is coming!!

    Signs For Our Firewood Delivery Truck

    We’ve been delivering firewood for a few years now, upgrading our equipment as we go along. We did buy a larger truck and were delivering three cords at a time but found out we were over weight…darn it… so it could really only take two cords at a time.
