To begin, light the mosquito coil so I won't get eaten alive on the back porch!
Materials: BIG box, brown paint, medium size brush, black paint or black marker, scrap wood.
Next, cut the box apart. Paint it brown. Let it dry.
I started applying the "logs" with black paint...didn't look right. Switched to a black marker...better. My hubby and I looked at it, didn't look all that "log like". Drew ovals in ....better, added "tree rings", even better!
I noticed that it was already developing a weak spot above the doorway, uh oh...will it last 5 weeks,(the length of summer school) maybe with some duct tape reinforcement? My hubby disappears awhile into his "shed", he returns with a piece of scrap wood, light weight, cuts it and viola! reinforced and attached with staple gun.
I think we can have some fun with this!
Let me know about some of your home made recycling projects, leave a comment and a way to see them. I would do a linking thing if I knew how, so for now just leave your blog address, I would love to see more ideas.
Thank you, Paula
