I am in with love crafting, making old
things new, refurbishing furniture, and doing things that, in
general, enhance a living space. Using a hammer is fun, spray paint
can completely change a room, and taking something apart to put
something better back together is a huge thrill.
The word “visionary” comes to mind
when I think of what kind of people look at some old piece of junk
and see how beautiful it could be, either in a perfect location or
with a new coat of paint. I find myself cruising the streets of
Findlay looking at all the old houses even and thinking about the
fresh face I could bring to this city. It's a massive dream of mine
to flip at least one house in my future.
In the meantime, however, I will settle
for using crafting to bring new life to old things. When I am sitting
around twiddling my thumbs, I like to skim through my Crafts board on
Pinterest for ideas of things I could be creating. So, here are some
crafts I really love from my board that I hope to be accomplishing
soon:
DIY Sharpie a stencil on a plate. Bake at 350 for 10 mins = permanent |
Piece of wood, 4 legs, padding then staple fabric |
