Mud Pie Station

 Last year this time I made what turned into my all time favorite project.

A mud pie station.

Since it's ready to be hauled out of the shed and into the yard so baking can begin, I decided to re-post it in time for other people to cook one up for themselves this summer.

Divided Drawer Key Holder

I've had this old drawer on a wall by the mudroom door for about 20 years and it hung just about over my head, I couldn't even see what was inside the top cubbies. 

It's been taken down to paint the walls several times, and without batting an eye, it went back up.

Dirty Laundry.... Sign

I'm gonna talk a little dirty.

Dirty laundry that is.
