Our house is wonderful in many ways, but one thing we've been wanting to improve is our long, dark hallway. The three bedrooms' windows just didn't give enough light to adequately light the hallway.<br />
<br />
So a few months ago, we purchased a new-to-us glass door at our local Habitat for Humanity Re-Store (we love that place!). But as life usually goes, we were too busy to get to installing it until this weekend!<br />
<br />
<br />

Now with our new door we get so much more light; as I pass by the hallway, I'm always doing a double take because I think the door is open! :)Rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06537033184851167784noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603780217122858385.post-11535469541638560802011-09-10T00:34:00.000-07:002011-09-10T00:34:59.551-07:00Over the SummerSo, what has the Handyman been up to this summer? Quite a bit actually! That's why there hasn't been much going on here at the blog. Here's a bit to get you caught up.<br />
<br />
I built a shed...<br />

With the beautiful summer evenings we've been having lately, we are so anxious to get started so we can enjoy our backyard and so we don't have to see this when we look outside our back door...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_CzZj9HJkxGM/TGhsgo8WQ6I/AAAAAAAAAB8/ZY7wOIr8PXQ/s1600/DSC_0115_2_WEB.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="285" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_CzZj9HJkxGM/TGhsgo8WQ6I/AAAAAAAAAB8/ZY7wOIr8PXQ/s400/DSC_0115_2_WEB.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>

<br />
Or this while we're in our backyard...<br />
<br />

Unfortunately we have so many other home improvement projects to do and the deck's pretty low on our priority list so it might not get done until next year. But when it does get done, it will be big and amazing!Derek-of-All-Tradeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10169641916038504722noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603780217122858385.post-70948625059746845392010-08-13T10:14:00.000-07:002011-09-21T21:18:14.703-07:00A Tip for Painting<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_CzZj9HJkxGM/TGV8mPMOBII/AAAAAAAAAB0/SMLmOPFdBdQ/s1600/DSC_0057_2_WEB.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="286" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_CzZj9HJkxGM/TGV8mPMOBII/AAAAAAAAAB0/SMLmOPFdBdQ/s400/DSC_0057_2_WEB.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">If you need to take a break from painting (like we are right now), wrap your rollers tightly in shopping bags. Make sure they don't have any holes. Then place them in the refrigerator. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">They will stay wet and ready to paint for days! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">This way you don't have to clean out your rollers in the middle of your project, and it can save you tons of time! I do recommend washing out your brushes after each use, though.</div>Derek-of-All-Tradeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10169641916038504722noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603780217122858385.post-33611929614423619832010-08-05T21:33:00.000-07:002010-08-05T21:34:46.389-07:00Window Trim in the Living Room - Stage 1<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_CzZj9HJkxGM/TFuOPOCyzkI/AAAAAAAAABs/Ugps4hKIv5s/s1600/DSC_0025_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_CzZj9HJkxGM/TFuOPOCyzkI/AAAAAAAAABs/Ugps4hKIv5s/s400/DSC_0025_2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">So this is obviously not the living room. It's the window in our bedroom. It's nearly identical to the one we're working on in the living room. We were so excited to put trim up, we forgot to take a before picture!

We could only choose one color for the entire interior of our house so we picked a creamy neutral, Mason Blanche. All our walls and our baseboards are painted in this color. Nice, but boring.<br />
<br />
So add some contrast, we picked a darker shade of the same hue for the walls in the living areas. Derek isn't quite finished yet, but it looks great so far!<br />

Yes, I did know it was broken when I bought it, but I figured that even if we couldn't fix it, we'd only be out $10. What a deal!<br /><br />And it seems to have been a simple fix. The plastic tank was cracked--the previous owner left gasoline in the tank through the winter--so Derek glued it with PVC glue and it held! Since the crack is near the top, Derek is hoping that if he doesn't fill up the tank, it will hold for quite a while. <br /><br />Here are some pictures of our freshly mowed lawn. It looks great!!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_t6KPb5xQ5rY/TEsiE51USmI/AAAAAAAADww/8EX_dpDo76Y/s1600/DSC_0005_2_WEB.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="285" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_t6KPb5xQ5rY/TEsiE51USmI/AAAAAAAADww/8EX_dpDo76Y/s400/DSC_0005_2_WEB.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_t6KPb5xQ5rY/TEsiDiYbEKI/AAAAAAAADws/2ImEmhk-L0E/s1600/DSC_0001_2_WEB.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="285" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_t6KPb5xQ5rY/TEsiDiYbEKI/AAAAAAAADws/2ImEmhk-L0E/s400/DSC_0001_2_WEB.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />And here's a picture of how our curb appeal is coming along.
