Got the top for my $ZERO Reclaimed Kitchen Island into the booth for finish. My aim is to make this in 24 hours using only materials that I have on hand (all reclaimed from this and various other homes). So far so good! ——————————————— #woodworkingfun #kitchenremodel #reclaimedwood #cheapdiy #herringbone (at Hopewell Junction, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAviWQlBxD0/?igshid=hagh3mnz8egh

Balcony DIY on the cheap + some balcony gardening tips

There is something about balconies…oh, wait I already had a rant on balconies. Remember?

Only that now I do have my own balcony. And believe it or not, a small garden too. Me, who once killed a cactus has her soon to be cherry tomatoes. And chillies.

look,

How amazing is that? Call is a mid-twenties crisis but growing something is magical. And easier as I would have anticipated. And it feels…

Selfie Sticks FTW!!!

I made the selfie stick portion of the assignment. 

The materials I needed were:

-one broom stick

-one dustpan

-one screw

-one wing nut 

-one velcro strap

-tape

The tools I needed to create the selfie stick were:

-Dremel

-chop saw

-drill

-pocket knife

Step 1:

Cut your broom stick down to the desire length using a chop saw. For our assignment, I chose a length of 2 feet.

Step 2:

Cut down your dustpan to the desire shape. Remember this will hold your phone so make sure you don’t make it too small or it will be too flimsy and/or won’t fit the phone. I chose to outline the phone with an inch of room all around to get my desire shape and size.

Step 3:

Drill a hole that is the same size as your screw approximately one centimetre from the edge of the broom stick. 

Step 4:

Using the same drill bit size as before, drill a hole through the dustpan handle where you want your screw to go through. Make sure that the screw will be able to go through cleanly from one side to the other.

Step 5:

Line up the holes you made by placing the end of the broom stick alongside the dustpan handle and put your screw through the whole thing. 

Step 6:

Tighten down your wing nut on the screw. This will allow for the adjustability that the dustpan needs so you can chose the selfie stick angle based on your needs.

Step 7:

Attach tape to the end of the broom stick that you will be holding for a comfortable grip.

Step 8:

Cut two slits in the dustpan, using your pocket knife, based on the size of your phone. These slits will allow for the velcro strap to go through, which will ultimately hold down your phone.

Step 9:

Insert velcro strap. Check to make sure your phone is held securely by the strap.

Step 10:

Cheer because you just made a selfie stick using low cost items. Now go out and use it and make everyone around you jealous with your super awesome selfie stick.

That was my process for making my low cost selfie stick. I hope you like it!!
