I spent the afternoon painting this tiny lamp’s stained crwam-colores canvas shade to relax. Since the base is a stem I wanted the top to be a color so it would look more like a flower. While we now have internet, we still don’t have air conditioning and the fans help but they don’t take…
This photo is of my white drill team boots and hat, the more “tortilla-size” hat that was harder to keep on than the smaller “bucket-hat”. In some Texas high schools there is an option to be on the drill team, a dance team that performs at football half-time in the fall and dance competitions in…
The featured image is of an old oak changing table that was in a church restroom. The pad was torn. The wood was beat up oak. The knobs were rose pink and from the 80s. It was sturdy, but a bit off putting to look at. In an effort to update the site and amenities,…
Greenhouse incoming! One of my decluttering clients had these three big panels from her business. She asked me to rehome them and when the gardener at our school saw them she immediately said greenhouse!

As soon as I saw this tub, I wanted it. Not to use it but to rehome it to others who would. I’m helping a client declutter as they downsize to move. This tub was in their garage behind their door. They honestly kept forgetting about it unless we where in the garage looking at…
I tried to rehome these hooks my best friend, a professional organizer, came across in her work. Buy Nothing Post: Give: 3 chrome double hook hooks One like but no Comments or takers after several months, during the summer. Well it turns out that my son’s school has these things, all types of double hooks…
❓♻️All you have to do is ask! I was able to reuse gift wrap and ribbons, masks, yarn, and button down shirts at my son’s school for Makerspace, Drama, Art and Spanish. They were thrilled to have the items and these were saved from the landfill or a common thrift store, though I know more…
Binders melt in the attic. Please don’t store binders anywhere non-air-conditioned. Don’t store them in the attic, the garage, shed, where they will melt and rust. The stickers will get gooky and creatures will poop on them. The rings will rust. Keep one or two on hand and then put the rest out in circulation…
