How to Frame T-Shirts

I’m still working on some projects for my husband’s 40th birthday party. He has a lot of old t-shirts from college and concerts that have been sitting in a box in our basement for several years. I can see why he doesn’t want to part with them, but I know he’s never going to wear

Painting Bathroom Cabinets

Each year I take off the week between Christmas and New Year’s from work, and each year I generally try to tackle a home project. One year I organized my basement (wish it would have stayed that way!), and last year I repainted my bathroom cabinets from honey oak to a dark espresso color and
