If you need to stop sweating the small stuff around the house, and you need to forget the idea of perfection….start a house project with salvage.

One of our sponsors, DeWayne Lumpkin, wants your support for his Kickstarter! He’s selling Vintage British Transit Route Sign Fabric, which he describes as “upcycled vintage route signs from England into wall art, pillows, upholstery & clothing.
