  • Describe the most ambitious DIY project you’ve ever taken on.

    Painting bedrooms isn’t really ambitious, steaming wallpaper off the hallway walls, not really. I have taken out a huge patch of bittersweet, that was a job and a half, but I wouldn’t call it ambitious. I know, we had a pretty ottoman covered in a burgundy soft fabric with a warm tapestry covering of the top of the ottoman. Rex ate it, the remains of the ottoman when I got home seemed beyond help. I was determined to repair that ottoman first to save Rex from getting yelled at over eating another piece of furniture, he was eating us out of house and home and second to see if I could. I don’t sew but I got out my sewing kit and got into the surgical zone and pieced the foam back together and then patiently stitched all the pieces back into place. Other than I, no one had a clue that the ottoman had been all but destroyed.
