My very own "ReBuilding" project

Originally, when I went with Jen and Katie (and Lucy of course) to the ReBuilding Center, I was just going to look around. Of course that didn't last. We ended up finding old cabinet doors and drawer fronts (only $2). So we decided to have a craft day. We bought some craft paint and chalkboard paint to make our very own custom chalkboards. With just some simple use of masking tape, we quickly had our painting done. My chalkboard had a spot for a knob, so I found a great one at Anthropologie . This knob was the first thing I've ever bought there (and probably the last, as much as I love the store). 

Yay for crafts!

The ReBuilding Center

Portland is full of cool things. The problem is, I don't where to find most of them. One that I do know about is the ReBuilding Center. People donate their old furniture, and people can go there to get building supplies. They also provide building materials for local artists to create unique works of art that also promote sustainability.

These are some doors that were actioned off to support the center

This is an example of something you can make in one of there classes

Anyway, it is so much fun to see the creativity and possibilities.
