Chickens and a Chicken House from recycled materials

So, Hubs wants to keep chickens and he started by building a chicken enclosure complete with nesting boxes from mostly recycled items we had on our little homestead.  I’m giving in and going with the idea we are homesteading in our fall and winter years of retirement.  I have to admit the chicken house and pen are pretty genius.

Junk decorating

One of my brothers and his wife are very eclectic and have wonderful old finds decorating their ranch style home.  I didn't ask what this cone shaped bucket is for, but I love how she coupled it with that FAMILY sign outside their barn.  She also has a cute junk garden next to her driveway with a re purposed wood flag I envy. 

One day soon I will take some photos to share of their newly added master bedroom suite.  It is an amazing work of art with old wood, tin, tile and .... oh, you will love it.
