Building the Coop (pt 3)

Our new coop may look huge, but it's not all chicken space! One of the things we wanted to include in our new coop was a storage area.

Super Easy Cushion Covers

I always have an eye out for furniture being thrown away. We furnished our first apartment with free stuff on the side of the road or stuff we built. Recently I found this really cool bench that would work in the breezeway of our house. Excuse the mess around the bench, we are working on… Continue reading Super Easy Cushion Covers
