Home Projects



We've beem starting some projects for the outside this Summer. I just finished some lattice extensions for the deck. the cutting of angles on the support poles was a little tricky.


I also finished constructing a cabinet for the garbage bins and recycle container. It opens with a top flap for filling up the bins and has double doors in the front for emptying them. Still have to paint it. On the profile photo, you can see in the background a row of little trees we planted for a future border, and a planter box to grow some vegetables.




Here's the planter box

Tomatoes, cucumber, red pepper, carrots, romaine lettuce, basil and zucchini will be our bounty....if everything works out.

Hopefully will be getting to some paintings shortly.

  1. Do you enjoy carpentry? It all looks good and solid.

  2. I do. In some ways, it is more enjoyable than painting. It is all problem solving and the answers are fairly easy to achieve. not always that way in painting. My hands get beat up a bit from the wood work and the sawdust boogers i could do without.
