Delayed gratification.
Going the distance.

There is no one in the lane.

It can be hacks for storing tools, organizing Christmas decorations, creating art with hambones… anything. I am hooked.
Now, I can proudly claim to have discovered my very own hack! Continue reading “Now You See It…Now You Don’t”
