Welcome to Our Resourceful Home
Thank you for stopping by to visit us today. We are in the process of transforming our blog from strictly recipes to a wide variety of resourceful information, including: crafts, sewing, home repair diy, and upcycling/repurposing a variety of items. These are just a few examples.
We hope you take the time to browse around, and find something that you would like to try! If you do, please comment and let us know how it went.
Have a Wonderful day!
May God Bless You!

Stone & Brick Planter / Subdivision Sign
An example of some of the hubby's amazing work. (He has been a mason for almost 30 yrs, so there's lots of his work out there.) This planter / entrance sign was custom built and designed for a non-profit agency in our area.

Hummingbird in the Rain
It was an amazing sight watching this hummingbird play / bath in the rain. The video really doesn't do it justice, as I was filming from inside, sitting at my desk.

New Paint in Kitchen & Master Bath
My husband and I had recently been discussing painting our kitchen and master bathroom walls. Although, we also discussed the rest of the home (and we will get to it), these rooms were where we wanted to start. Our kitchen walls were sheet-rock with printed, multicolored fruits and vegetables all over; our master bath was printed, multicolored flowers. We did not really like that.
Low and behold, last week a very good friend of ours dropped by with 10+ gallons of interior paint and asked if we wanted it. (Of course we did!) It is all perfectly good paint, that was left over from cleaning up/remodeling rentals. The owners wanted to clear out their storage and asked our friend to haul it off. He told them he knew someone that would take it, with their permission. The owners agreed. Win - Win situation! We now have enough paint for every room in our home and 10+ gallons of paint saved from the landfill.
Our project last weekend, of course, was to paint our kitchen and master bathroom. It also led to some minor crafty redecoration, which we will show in an upcoming video: Our Resourceful Projects: Re-purposed, Re-used, Re-cycled - Pt 1. We couldn't be happier with the outcome: no more printed walls that nothing matches and the only cost we have in these projects is for a paint pan and roller.
We are now deciding what this weekends project will be. Can't wait to get started!
