DIY Salvaged Junk Projects 569
.
Every Friday, 7 PM through Wednesday 11 PM Pacific
Hi all!
Anyone else loving the longer days and more outdoor time? Every moment it hasn’t been raining, I’ve been puttering outdoors firing up some new project. But have I finished any of them? Nope! ‘Fraid you’ll have to take that one up with the rain!
Not having a post for this week, I dug into my archives and found a draft I forgot to post last summer! And it’s got an epic outdoor tip that’s worth the read… what timing!
How to start a new lawn from seed with epic lawn care supplies by Funky Junk
You may remember this little split rail garden feature that I installed last summer. But what I didn’t share yet was that gorgeous green strip of lawn right behind it!
When I seeded the new lawn, we were going through a heatwave and I couldn’t keep up with all the watering. So I dug deep and landed an affordable system that gave me my TOTAL freedom back!
So if you do any kind of summertime watering, and you’d rather forget about it, you’ll love this post…
While I continue on about a 1000 unfinished projects, let’s enjoy these gorgeously finished features from last week’s party…

Donna, I’m green with envy with your ‘carpet-like’ grass. We have darling bunnies by the hundreds visiting our yard-…ugh!
Thank you so much for hosting another amazing party!!!!
I am so glad you liked my checker board table. So many people shared with me how much they loved checkers as a kid. It brought back happy memories for them and I enjoyed hearing that 🙂
I hope you have a great week!

Have a nice weekend! xoxo
Hi Donna,
I am on a roll! I linked up not one but two projects this week.
Crazy to think that this party 569!
Have a great weekend!
Thanks for the feature Donna! I just love all the inspiration here. 🙂
We have a gorgeous start to spring here, so I am heading out to do you yard work. 🙂
Happy 1st weekend of spring!
You made my Saturday, Donna! Thank you so much for featuring both my garden markers and Easter place cardholders. Our snow is almost gone and I can’t wait to thatch the lawn once it dries so it gets nice and green like your lush lawn. Happy first weekend of Spring. xo
Thank you for the feature, Donna! What a lovely surprise
I totally feel you – I have quite a few projects going at the same time, and unfortunately I never get back to some of them. Today my mission was to declutter any abandoned and unfinished craft projects that were just sitting there for far too long 🙂
Thank you for hosting the party. Have a great weekend.
Thank you for the feature of my beach vibe vases, it is appreciated!! And thanks for hosting 🙂
