This was back in the day before I even knew what a blog was or that other people did this too!

Or at least it did the other day when I was trying to get these photos of my new giant cast iron hooks..This is the way I like this front hall we’ve been working on best anyway.

All dark and shadowy with the grey Fall light coming in through the window.. We finally got around to getting a bit more progress in the front hall, which is good, because now we’ve got another big BIG project started up that I can’t wait to show you.A couple of them actually.. Wahoo!About flippin’ time!… I mean.. Yay!.

Back to the hooks.You’ll never believe where I found them.

The dollar store!.

You can find pretty much anything there..Even the youngest kids can turn an Allen key and the older kids will love following the directions and leading construction.. 5.. Painting.

– obviously easy for all ages(ish).. 6.. Drywall taping.– have the young ones standby with the scissors to cut the tape to length and crease it for the corners.

Let them apply a coat of drywall mud if they’re up for the challenge.. 7..Create, plan, shop and tool up.
