Upcycle A Funnel Into A Planter Planter upcycle project, turning a funnel into a planter is what I'm sharing today. This could not be an easier planter project! I found this funnel several years ago, and I also had an old lampstand. I decided to put these together and turn them into a cool upcycled planter. Okay so here is my funnel, wire, screening, and I think these are wire pliers. Before I started on my planter, I used some Dawn dish soap to clean the rest of the oil residue that was left on this funnel. This funnel already had a hole, so I carefully drilled another hole on the opposite side. **Please use caution when drilling holes in metal, use correct tools, and goggles** Once I had my second hole drilled, I took out some wire I had in my stash. Honestly I ... View Post

If I didn't wait until the wood dried out, the paint wood have peeled off, so I waited and I waited. The ... View Post

How To Hem Curtains Without Sewing
My daughter's room is really starting to come along. In case you missed it, I'm transforming my daughter's bedroom, by giving it an update. It started out with an idea, and then I found window valences that were a beautiful turquoise. The color of the valances gave me the inspiration for my design of the room. I found a set of six panels for 4.99 at the thrift store, but once I hung them up on my wall I noticed that they were way too long. Both windows in her room are totally different sizes. One is large and wide, the other is small. To balance the windows I first needed to re-hang the rods so they were even, making the windows look like the same height. Then, it was time to hem these. But, I don't have a sewing machine. I know, I need to get one already! I knew that I had ... View Post
