We’ve had so much rain this month so outdoor projects have been impatiently waiting. However yesterday we had 1 day of sun! I was able to get started on staining the wood on our grape arbor.

The winner of the DIY Project Helper Giveaway is… Kristin!
1) A casual monogrammed “D” for some blank space on the top of the built-in in our DR.
OR…..
2) Cool, fun vinyl numbers (1-5) to put on the back stairs leading from the kitchen to the backyard. This area was always an afterthought but I am currently painting (BM’s Saybrook Sage – so pretty!), beadboarding, sanding, staining, plate wall displaying (!) and making this small area part of our home.
What a gorgeous grape arbor! I am jealous. Can't wait to see the reveal. Thanks for hosting.
Thank you again for hostessing!
Spray on stain! Can't wait to see it…I was outside all day yesterday (until it hurt) because I knew it was going to rain today.
Wood Stain?? Cool!!
I have a wheel barrel full of rain water and a mud lake on our lot with no landscaping….
Needless to say most of it is tracked into my house and bed from my wonderful dog:(
Thanks for hosting:-)
