A Mail Solution

No, not a "male" solution.  Although that would be nice, too... ;-)

Our mail has always been an issue - we never have a proper place for it, and important mail always seems to get misplaced or forgotten.  My husband saw this idea in a magazine, and shortly after, I saw the idea on Pinterest.

We just happened to have some old "saloon doors" from our kitchen that were disregarded pretty much as soon as we bought the house.  I touched these up with some new white paint, and distressed them with sandpaper and glaze.  I sprayed them with some clear polycrylic and voila!  A mail system that seems to be working quite well.

Our entry area isn't quite done, but I'm happy with it for the moment :-)

Thanks to the Pinterest Challenge for spurring me on!

A Quick Craft Show

A few weekends ago, my good friend asked me to do a small local fall fest with her.  I was able to throw the table together without much thought since I had kept the things I used at my last craft show.  I didn't go overboard for this one, realizing that it was going to be on the smaller side.

It turned out to be a beautiful day, and we really enjoyed spending it with our friends!
