My reading interest tends to vary with my energy level. Some days I want to dive into a deep, multi-page scientific journal entry about the quest to find the Higgs Boson or read the entire Wikipedia page on early church history. Finishing large articles can be rewarding. Leaves you feeling like you read a novel. […]
Yep, we’re finally getting around to the dining room wainscoting project and we’re starting with a post on how to remove trim. There is quite a lot to do with this one, but we’re happy to finally get to it. We’ve got a full weekend of home projects ahead of us for a change and […]
I love books. Not just any books, mind you. I love How To books. There is something empowering about a How To book that I find very satisfying. Consequently, I rarely part with any of the DIY books I’ve collected over the years. They’re usually filled with so much info that even though I may […]
We don’t have green thumbs. Our lawn probably is never going to be the nicest on the block. But, that doesn’t mean we can’t try right?

Hope everyone had a Happy Easter!! Ours was filled with great family and great ham! So great in fact, that we skipped our normal Monday post to sleep in!! It was worth the wait though, because today we’re going to talk about concrete countertops. Thankfully, this post isn’t about another project that Lisa and I […]
If you couldn’t tell from the post title, we’re planning a workbench build. I know what you’re thinking. Wait, aren’t you already working a couple projects? Why don’t you finish those before you start another? And what’s with all the planning posts? So, to bring you up to speed… 1. We’re waiting for some hardware […]
Today we’re going to discuss our raised panel wainscoting layout options, but first Happy Monday! Hope you had a great weekend. Aren’t you happy to be awake and at work? No? Me neither.
