Fun Science Project for Kids, Water pencil




My son tried this fun science experiment from this cool book Totally Irresponsible Science Experiments. Fill sandwich bag about 2/3 with water, close bag. Hold top of bag, puncture bag through water area and go through to the other side. It's amazing how many times you can do it.

Have fun!

Adding and Addition onto our House Part 3



Well it's been a busy couple of weeks but the addition on the back of our house is pretty much done. Just a few minor things left and of coarse clean up, dust and debris.
The right side is the garage addition which will be pretty convenient for a packing area for my Etsy shops.

Here is a photo of the inside where the glass doors are. 
We didn't cover over the brick wall that use to be the outside. I think it gives it a nice rustic look.


A few DIY Tips - The wide wood around where the old door way was has to be stained. The sides I will use a small brush as not to get it on the white molding but the wide wood part I will use a white cloth to put the stain on. It seems to go on more even with a cloth.

Calking Tip - Make sure you cut the opening to your calk tube on a slant and not to big,. Cut it about the size cracks you will be filling. When calking the trim around the windows and baseboards. Run a bead of calk all along the baseboard top and wet your finger and run it along the the calk it blends it in well and gives it a nice finish look.


Thanks for visiting!
