I’m so fascinated by this little thing!

CIL challenged me to come up with a fun, cottagey, project to share with all the cottagers at the upcoming Spring Cottage Life Show in Mississauga April 1-3, and to help them spread the good word about their line up of Woodcare products (CIL Woodcare Distinction™, Fine Wood Finish and Canadian Wood Oil) exclusively available at The Home Depot that are perfect for all kinds of different outdoor projects where we want lasting beauty and protection.What’s more cottagey than relaxing and enjoying a few festive beverages out on the deck with friends and family?.

I’m really proud of how well this project turned out.It’s both impressive-looking and super-functional and of course, it was pretty easy to pull together since we have an almost unlimited supply of barn wood out back!Here’s how we did it!.

We started out with a barn..I need to let you know right now, that we don’t actually own this barn.

It’s behind our house, but all the land on the other side of the creek is owned by a big German company who leases it out to local farmers.

No one uses this barn anymore and because of that, it’s fallen into a little bit of disrepair in the last few years.Well, there you have it, my own favorite tip, and the favorite ideas of many others as well!

You should now be fully prepared to have the shiniest, happiest-looking kitchen ever!.Happy Polishing!.
