Elevating the Everyday With Lothantique

These days, I just need something that.

Make them “painting days”.Wear your painting clothes the whole time and just plan to be a general mess.

At first, each pack of 6 beadboard strips was taking me about 45 mins total to get done, but it was spread out over a couple of hours including drying time.I was thinking originally that I could just set aside 5 minutes per coat and kind of do it without making a mess hopefully in between all of my regular activities.Well, then it took much longer than 5 minutes per coat (more like 20-25) and sometimes I was wearing clothes that I didn’t want to risk getting painty, because the whole process was a lot drippier than I expected, so it just wasn’t convenient to get done in my day-to-day life.

Then I took a weekend and made it my “painting weekend” and things got done.I was already set up and in my painting clothes, just went to the room I was working in for 15 minutes at a time or so, then went and did something else for 15 minutes while it dried, then went back.

I did 12 packs in one weekend and got a lot done around the house too!

So dedicate the time.I used a couple of different fresh greens, and a white.. After the paint has dried, it’s time to write the names of the things you’re growing onto your rocks.

If you kids are young, you can help them with this, but if they’re older it’s fun to let them do it themselves.. That’s really all it takes and now you’ve got some fun garden markers to use in all your gardening adventures!.Best of all, it’s quick and easy, and doesn’t require a lot of planning on your part.

A perfect craft to do one afternoon when you don’t know what to do with yourselves!.I’ve always thought that twine was one of the best and most useful crafting supplies that any DIYer can have.Adding a little twine to any project always seems to give it so much character and can look beachy, or rustic, or modern, or cottagey, depending on how you use it.
