FIXING DRAWERS THAT FALL DOWN - Ridgid Driver and Before & After







I've used a lot of power drivers in my time
but the one I use now has been my favorite
for years. I first saw it in the hands of an

TURNING A DESK INTO TWO BEDSIDE TABLES and painting them with annie sloan chalk paint






I found a solid wood desk on the road-
side the morning after we got home from vacation. It was a wonderful
 WELCOME HOME!!!
I would never have found the desk if we didn't have to go back to the airport to retrieve our luggage.

THE ASPEN SIDEBOARD & APPLIQUES



I found an amazing sideboard before we left on holidays.
It was also amazingly expensive but I wanted to work
with it. It would be just like me to start a dozen projects
before going on vacation and that is exactly what I did.
So now that I'm back home I've been cleaning up all the
projects I started. Next on the list was to finish the 
ASPEN SIDEBOARD ....

MY SUITCASES & A CABINET REVEAL




SMALL SPACE TIP:

My mother has always used old suitcases to store all
sorts of things, and the smaller ones are very useful in
tight homes like mine. I don't have a lot of them myself
but I do use everyone I have. I store favorite magazines
in one and books in another. I have all the glitter and 
glue for Christmas projects in a third. All my packing
stuff for shipping is kept in a fourth one. I like using
them because I can easily grab the one I need and take
it to wherever I am working. When you stack them like 
I have done they work well as a side table and it looks
pretty cool too.
