Barn Restoration with Pool
Comments (3)Looks great. I wonder how much something like that would cost. I have a decent, 1-story barn/shed left on the property. This gives me some really good ideas. Most likely I'll put a small hot tub/pool in there....See Moremy barn quilt sans barn
Comments (22)Dee, that is so very NEAT! :) I just finished building a little shed for hay for my calves and when I saw this - yes, a plan is forming! LOL I live in Wyoming and am a big football fan. I made a queen sized Wyoming Cowboy's quilt a couple of years ago and donated it to my nieces HS class for a fund raiser. I miss it! My plan is to recreate it on the back of my new shed, not many people will be able to see it but it will be good practice for something else. I also want to 'copy' Dee's idea - it would be a great addition for my front yard. Thinking about it, I will probably do that first since I wont be able to get to the shed one till Spring LOL Hope everyone has a great weekend & Happy Quilting!

Comments (8)You know. I forgot I did get a lighting buy there. I picked up this hinkley semi mount for 40 (brand new with tags- a local lighting store donates there). I don't know where they get their pricing from. But, it's way above any other restore that I've been to. I found out that they pull everything off the internet and then price. I did pick up a "new" stainless frigedaire stove. It still had the plastic on it for 175, priced at lowes for 700. I do love going there! :) Kim Here is a link that might be useful: Hinkley...See MoreMy negative experience with home restoration
Comments (1)What you expect from a restoration company, most of who they hire are insurance hacks. That said the work is a bit sloppy, with a few nail holes they missed to fill, shoe molding is missing, etc but everything can be easily fixed... Did you make a punch list at the end? Because usualy before final payment is released to a restoration company, the insurance company will ask a homeowner if the work was completed and they're satisfied with the work. If it makes you feel any better, I have seen some of the jobs done by restoration companies that were 10 times worst in comparison so consider yourself lucky....See MoreRose Pekelnicky
