For sanding raw wood before painting, start at a low sanding grit, 80-100, and work your way up to 220 grit. Just give it a quick sanding with 320 or 400 grit sandpaper to smooth it out, then remove the dust and apply subsequent coats.

You would need a huge garden with hundreds of plants in order to use the same amount of drip irrigation water as a single sprinkler! If you decide to convert an area of lawn into a garden bed, or add a huge drift of flowers in a section of the garden that doesn't have a sprinkler, you're stuck watering by hand every few days.

– Convert An Old Dresser or Table into a Coffee Bar / Wine Bar Looking for diy coffee bar ideas or wine bar ideas If you want to be inspired with coffee bar ideas from your own decor, start by deciding what the main table/dresser or shelf piece should be, and build from there. Here is a coffee bar cabinet we did for church, with a super affordable dresser make-over: Are you looking for a way to add some more counter space and storage space to your kitchen, without the big costs of a kitchen renovation. We used a long dresser to maximize space, but you could use any size that will fit in whatever space you can squeeze out (even a file size cabinet if you just have a small space).

Spring is the perfect time to prune Japanese maple trees, before the buds break into leaves. With the leaves out of the way, you're able to see the shape of the tree itself and guide it into the look you want in summer.

I’m sharing my simple spring home tour along with so many talented blogging friends as part of the Seasonal Simplicity Spring Series. The other change was finding decor I truly loved for my home that wasn’t seasonal.
