How to:

#2 Decide to do it now and post your intentions!
Then….
#3 Sometime THIS month, post a “how to” photo of the materials you’re using.
#4 Sometime THIS month, post a photo of your finished project!
Label all your photos “July Project Challenge”
Your photos will be included in a special Photo Album and could be included in an article on our companion Flea Market Gardening website. Junkin` in July!
