For your hubbies...

shawn doesn't think anyone will appreciate this post, but i have to believe that one of you has a husband that carries ladders on his truck and is annoyed with the whistling sound that is made as the wind blows through the holes in the ladders.
maybe he's right, but just in case, i'll let you in on his little secret...

it's great stuff expansion foam. he filled all the holes in the ladder with it and no more whistling...




the only problem...

the mess he made on the driveway! :)

now...another little helpful that you probably already know about.

but again. just in case.


a cup hook on the paint brush makes for a great holder as you paint. it lets you hang the paint brush on the pail as you take a break and sip your diet coke :)
