Home Improvement

From the Department of "We Shouldn't Have Anything Nice":

This is Jesus, ripping out our ugly old carpeting on the stairs Tuesday morning...


Here are the new hardwood stairs with the new loopy carpeting installed yesterday:

And this is why we shouldn't be allowed to have anything nice in our house:

About an hour after the installation of the carpeting, we snagged it moving the bed back into position. There was a big bald spot with a long loop of yarn. You know how a towel gets those long attached loopy strings when you snag something on it? Like that. But on our brand new carpet!

Luckily, I have Tacky Glue. And bamboo skewers and lots of pins. Hopefully, this fix will hold for many years to come!

Crafty tech writer, who knits, fixes the loopy carpet with bamboo skewers, pins and glue.

Sounds like the next Mission Impossible movie. I'd go see it!
