As y’all already know, RancherMan & I wanted a personalized Ranch-Themed Cornhole game for our annual family reunion (ie: RanchFest) that we host each year.
We bought the materials and RancherMan got busy building the customized ranch-themed cornhole game.
I wanted to make the cornhole bags myself using my stash of denim scraps from RancherMan’s ripped jeans.
Come see how easy it is to whip up these cornhole bags yourself.

Well, garden season is in full swing in NE Texas. It’s the season all gardeners have been dreaming about for weeks. Much work has gone into planning, seed-buying and dreaming.
One of the things I still needed for my garden was plant markers. I’d love to have an easy way to identify plants in their teeny-tiny stage as I’m strolling through the garden. But you know how strong my #UseWhatchaGot drive is!
Thankfully I’ve found an easy way to repurpose items I already have in my home to use for the actual plant markers. Using these markers helps me to remember what I planted where without having to come inside & look it up. Check it out!

Mulch is a valuable asset in your garden. It preserves moisture, moderates soil temperatures and helps keep your plants healthy too.
But don’t assume your only option is to buy mulch! Check with your city, utility company or local extension agent & you could get it FREE!

I don’t want to store my empty canning jars in a way where the jars can clink together. That weakens the glass over time causing canning failures, etc.
I came up with a solution that protects the jars as well as simplify storage. See what we did!
