This Thursday finds us hosting our first (sold-out!) workshop in our new outdoor workshop area: “Buzz Off! Create-Your-Own Mosquito-Beater Planter.  For those who aren’t attending, and in the spirit of making our outdoor spaces less buggy any way possible, check out this awesome DIY/repurposing idea from one of our neighbors on Mill Rd!

Rachel’s blog documents her adventures through new-homeownership and the projects that go along with that.  Her latest post details how to make tiki torches out of old wine bottles; a fantastic, easy, and causally-chic addition to any outdoor area!  Find the full tutorial on her blog here! All you need is an empty wine bottle, some small gravel (we used Van Putte’s multi-colored pea gravel), some replacement tiki wicks and oil, and a washer!
