I found an amazingly gorgeous piece of wormy maple wood at a local lumber yard. I got it for my mom because she needs a new table over her washer and dryer. The last one ended up being, unfortunately, destroyed when we had to swap out her washer and dryer due to some poor decision making not on my part. So, I'm going to take you along with me while I turn this into a laundry room table.

We have a very awkward, narrow, and long side yard. I've talked before about my plans for it and how I want to change up the mulch and the mud and just add more space for us to be able to hang out here. Another thing that I wanted to do was to add a shed. I wanted a place to put our bikes and get stuff off of the patio that we have at the moment and be able to utilize that space.

I originally got a large piece of wood from the lumberyard to use for the headboard on my bed. However, I ended up going with a different piece of wood for the headboard. My mom asked me if I could take the unused piece of wood and make a custom mug holder for her. Let me show you how I did it!

 If you've been around for a little while, you may remember my white tile mat that started to fade and change colors due to its sun exposure. So far, I've been keeping it at our back door as kind of a catch all for our shoes. Well, today I'm going to do something a little scary. I'm going to cut it in half and do something new with it!
