Front Porch Welcome Flag
Since we built our home, I’ve been trying to spruce up our curb appeal and front porch. We started with a completely blank slate and lots of rocks. We’re still working on the yard, and I’m sure that we’ll be working on it for years to come, but sprucing up the front porch always makes…
How To: Recover an Ironing Board
I don’t know how you feel, but I was beyond tired of the generic cover that came on my ironing board. For one, it didn’t have elastic to hold it onto the frame and I was constantly readjusting it and the foam beneath it. Second, it was a dark blue and showed everything. It was…
