I drove 45 miles to the house that my daughter and husband have at Devils Lake, and dug out the dinnerplate dahlia root, to winter at my house. I pot it early in the spring, about March, so when the frost is gone, it is a well started plant. This took me all of 10 minutes.
But my really big project was to put down self sticking-12 inch squares of linoleum tile under the kitchen sink. I had noticed the last time that I was up there, she had raw wood under the sink and up the one side wall, and I thought of these tiles, that I had picked up at the thrift store. They cost me $5, for the box of 45 tiles. I didn't know what I would do with them, but just couldn't pass them up. This took me about 2 hours, with fitting around the 3 pipes, the corners and matching the seams. But sure am happy with the results, as is my daughter.
This is what the area looked like before I started [ATTACH=CONFIG]278995[/ATTACH]
Here are the tiles that I laid down. It will be so much easier to wipe out and keep clean. [ATTACH=CONFIG]278996[/ATTACH] |
