This is a great way to make them cute, put them to use, and even get them back outside again!.

The staples and stitches got covered up with a little grosgrain ribbon glued all around.. Then I had a stool!One more piece of the kitchen puzzle falls into place!.

I ended up freshening the finish on the top of the stool a bit too.Just a quick sand, some stain and two coats of poly.It doesn’t match the desk, but they still seem pretty happy together.. Chris asked me why I’m always skirting everything.

I have to say, I skirted maybe two things about 3 years ago once and then never again.I guess three things skirted ever is just too many ruffles for any man to take.. At least Marsha gets it.

So I decided to skirt one more thing with all this beautiful fabric I have on my hands.

I’ll show you next week!Don’t you love it when you come upon a great new idea completely by mistake?Luckily there are many amazing natural, homemade cold and flu remedies right here.. Well hello there, cold and flu season!

So great to see you again!I can say this because I know I’m ready for any aches, pains, or sore throat that might come my way over the next few months.

There are a lot of different natural homemade cold and flu remedies to make yourself feel better when you’re under the weather, but these are some of my very favorites.. Salt Water.Whenever I feel a sore throat coming on, I grab a glass of warm water, stir about a teaspoon of salt into it and gargle about as much of it as I can handle over and over again until the glass is gone.
