Julie's Berry Planter Box

I spent a few hours this weekend building this planter box for Julie. She wanted a place to plant different types of berries on our porch. This box is approximately 37x15x18 and cost just under $30 to build. A smaller planter box was for sale at the nursery for around $80.

Wooden Tractor

Julie got me this tractor from the 99 cent store. It looked like it was just supposed to all go together and kind of snap in, but it took quite a bit of super glue to keep it from just completely falling apart. I love building stuff.

Picture Frames

I found this slightly broken down picture screen thingy (left) and I cut it up and painted it and put some pictures in it and hung them in my hallway (right). I am not quite a trash digger though because I found it adjacent to the trashcan, not in it.

New Bookcase for the Girls

There is a useless space underneath the crib in the kids room so I built this bookshelf(?). This shelf is only one shelf high and the backing is made of cardboard, so that I would have a place to store the girls' books without them getting lost in the crevace by falling back behind each other. I made it from wood that I took apart from some old and tall bookcase a couple years ago, and put a fresh coat of white paint on it. Beautiful.
