How to Build Inexpensive Raised Garden Beds

Just my annual reminder😉 I started putting our tree up before Thanksgiving a few years ago because it made our house feel cozier as the days got shorter and colder. I struggle with seasonal depression this time of year, and there’s just something about the twinkle of the lights that helps my mood.

Anyone else feel extra motivated to start a big project right before hosting for the holidays?🙋‍♀️ I had no business making over our guest bedroom last year just a couple days before family came to stay with us, but once I decided I wanted to do it, there was no stopping me😂

I was also that person in college who put off writing their papers until the night before they were due🤪 There’s just something about the urgency and impending deadline that energizes me to get it all done🤣

I’m not saying don’t buy if it makes you happy and you have the budget for it. I’m just saying what you already have is more than enough to make it a magical Christmas for you and your family✨

(ad) I love hosting extended family, especially at the holidays, but with extra guests, our bathroom works extra hard to keep up with the extra showers and the extra hair😬

And then, being the worrier I am, all I can think about is what if we end up with a clogged drain?

I love how handy @skilpowertools are, and their Power Snake Drain Cleaner is no exception. It’s battery-operated and has a 25-foot long cable that extends and retracts as needed. It’s simple to use and gives me peace of mind that if the situation should arise, we’ve got it handled💪

(ad) We’ve had this project on our list for✌️years and the patio makeover finally gave me the motivation to make it happen.

The old panels around our patio were rotting and falling apart. We used the @skilpowertools Table Saw to cut new boards for the frames, and it handled those 2x6s like butter!

The table saw has always been the tool that intimidated me the most, but this one changed that! It feels approachable with all its built-in safety features.

Now if the snow would just chill for a few weekends so I can finish the rest of this project before winter really hits!

(ad) I have not been good about closing down the patio for the winter in past years😬 But with a fresh makeover this spring, I felt a bit more incentive to take care of this space so it looks just as good next year!

The painted floors in particular took quite a beating, which on the one hand, means the patio saw some good times this summer, but it was also starting to look a bit rough. I wasn’t quite sure how I was going to clean the floor, especially because I didn’t want to ruin the paint.

Fortunately I got the chance to try the @skilpowertools Power Scrubber and it worked perfectly! It made the job so easy, removing the grime and it didn’t pull up any paint🙌

The floor feels as bright and fresh as it did when I first painted it, and I’m glad to know I have a tool that will take care of it for years to come!

Adding these two walls of built-ins to our living

Adding these two walls of built-ins to our living room has made it feel so cozy! I’m excited to start decorating the shelves for the holidays✨

Is this closet makeover actually finished, or not?

Is this closet makeover actually finished, or not?🤪

I do love how this refresh turned out but I’m not completely sure about the paint color. Sometimes it looks like a close match to the wallpaper but most of the time, I feel like it looks more like lime green😬

What do you think? Does it work? Should I try to find a more gold color, or maybe go back to my original plan to paint it a light blue?
