LOVE this post! I want to do a swing so bad. My kids range from 11-11 months. But my boys are tall (as your girls will probably be). Do you think that swing will hold their weight? My oldest is just under a 100 lbs. Thank you!!

I like those open kitchen shelves. I went back to the post and linked on the brackets and they are still available. But, there are no reviews on the brackets.
So, have they held up well and would you use them again.

Changing our shower head has been such a game changer in our rentals! We bring it with us from apartment to apartment. I don’t know why it hadn’t occurred to me before you suggested it years ago. Haha
