They feel a little more fun and special occasion-y than regular votives, but they’re so neutral that you really can just set them up and then forget them..
We started out with a barn..I need to let you know right now, that we don’t actually own this barn.
It’s behind our house, but all the land on the other side of the creek is owned by a big German company who leases it out to local farmers.No one uses this barn anymore and because of that, it’s fallen into a little bit of disrepair in the last few years.Word on the street is that this barn is probably actually about 100 years old, and was built by ship-builders, so it has a lot of really interesting and pretty construction inside.. We used a few different components of the barn in our beverage center, as well as some new pine boards from The Home Depot.
The big chunky legs are just pieces of roof support that had blown off with a big section of the roof last year..The counter top for the beverage center as well as the skirting around the top came from some of the siding that has been blown off.
Actually, that siding has been used in quite a few projects around here, and also in the homes of a lot of the neighbors.
It’s become kind of a community-use barn around here.It’s amazing what you can find in your own house when you just look at things a little differently.The Haven Conference is in Atlanta over the next few days and I’m going to be there!.
I’ll be learning tons about blogging and DIY as well as hanging out with some of my very favorite bloggers!Can’t picture it?
It’ll be just like this:.…only I probably won’t be laying in grass and hopefully it will be a little less awkward.
