The Crafts-man

September 14, 2009 by Amy

Even though there was major flammage Scott didn’t let it stop him from creating a few more bottles. Here they are in the yard. Unfortunately I can’t get a good picture at night when the candles are lit.

His latest project was our metal table we had put outside. We bought the coffee table for $10 at a store when we first got married. It’s a metal table that had a scratch. We just put a magazine over it and called it done. Over the years it’s been moved around quite a bit, staying in the playroom most recently. Scott put it outside last week and then very randomly decided to put a checkerboard on it. I walked out to find him drawing lines and putting down tape. I actually think it was inspired by the tables in Cracker Barrel.

I thought it was awfully cute albeit a bit crafty for a handy man’s afternoon project.

    Love it all! I am so proud of you guys! I also noticed the pool closed in the background 🙁 I guess that means summer is officially over!

    Love the bottle lights – what a cool idea. The table is so fun. Have you played checkers or chess on it? Great way to recycle.

    Fun to see you over at Bloom, too. 😀
