Little Projects Build a Bigger Project

I haven't posted in awhile, but if you check out our Facebook page you can see that doesn't mean we've been idle.
Some decor decisions have been made and our theme seems to be: repurposed. We've been breaking pallets apart to build a pallet wall. I love the texture. That everything is different and weathered! Plus free is great. So far the only real downside has been that we're doing it outside in -10 degree weather. You can tell in the pictures, many,  many layers have been required.
We've also been collecting rail spikes and repurposing them. Don't panic, no trains are at risk! The trains no longer come through here and CN is pulling up the tracks. We just pick up what gets left behind. Chris has been making them into knobs for our cupboards.  He also started making bottle openers with them and it's turned into kind of a side business.

We're very excited about the progress we've made. And with the holidays coming up we hope the new year will lead to some big decisions.

Happy holidays!
