Well I’ve sat here trying to think of a great way to start this post, and I’m at a loss. My brain is tired–I have just started a project that will last the next 10 weeks (nope, not the board and batten project!) and it’s not DIY, so I can’t even blog about it. AND […]

If you have managed to get this far into your existence without knowing a thing about board and batten, here is a breakdown from This […]

I’m going to type up a post about the entire build process for the laundry room cabinet and hutch so it is all in one place and in order. I thought that the “Cabinet and hutch-laundry room” category might be helpful, but it doesn’t pull them up in order and if you only want to […]
