MORE FREE STUPID STUFF

I love waterbed drawers and when they are free I love them even more…

So when I found these on our local classifieds I grabbed my “Half's’” Mom and her truck and off we went…

We loaded them up and since the dump was on the way home we had to stop and check their “Give and Take” area…

And we found more free stuff. She got a couple of exercise machines that were practically brand new and I got a new slide for my swing set…

It’s brand new! Never been used.
Anyway I finally got home with my loot…

And I took them apart and started painting…

Then I took them inside to my new “Sleep-Over” room…

I put one set under the bunk beds I built into the closet…

And the others under a couple of beds I made…

I haven’t gotten the knobs put on yet but you get the idea…

It’s all coming together.

THE FLOOR IS UNTAPED

I’m so excited I could do this…

Or this…

I could just flip…

I’m jumping for joy…

TA-DA…

It turned out so fun…

I sanded it a little…

Then urethaned it which gave it a nice aged look…

I’m so happy…

I just can’t help myself. I still had a few FREE DOORS "STUPID" left over so of course I had to do something with them.
So I took them apart and cut them into strips and put them up in my old sewing/craft room…

I was really sad to these old walls go…

My Dad and I did them together about 13 years ago. We took brown paper bags and cut them up and got them wet and wrinkled and then put them on the wall with wallpaper paste. Then we sponged different colors all over. It used to look really good but after years of hanging things on the wall and little fingers finding loose corners and ripping it off, it was time for a change…
