Every Friday, 7 PM through Wednesday 11 PM Pacific

Hello creative friends!

This past week we had quite the heat wave, which placed our latest project in high use!

Easy new deck for a hot tub

 

How to build an easy platform or deck for an inflatable hot tub

This past week I shared how my son and I built a platform for our inflatable hot tub! I still can’t believe how easy it was! My son killed it with his cordless drill skills and we worked late into the night to get it done. It’s amazing, and can be handy for so many things. Visit the tutorial to see how we made it EASY by not needing concrete nor cutting even one board to size! So we ended up turning the heat in the tub WAY down to enjoy in the evenings. Boy was it great!

Now that our heat wave has subsided, it’s time to get out there and share the pretty finale.  Coming soon!

So until all that transpires, let’s check out this week’s fabulous repurposed features from last week’s party…
