Adjustable Suspended Shelf ::: Melissa


I wanted to come up with a shelf that could be used to display items while really letting them 'pop' out from the wall. I happened to have several old 8x10 frames I wasn't using, and thought the glass could be repurposed for this project.
Total project cost: $8.10.

Homemade Stamps ::: Melissa


While researching old wood, I found that many things were stamped. Things like old crates and spools were used to ship items, and had all kinds of neat ink on them. I decided that in order to make my new wood look old I should have stamps too. So I made some! Total project cost: $3!
