Our New Shed Is Trying to Kill Us — What’s Really Happening

Show notes for Episode #10 of Young House Love Has A Podcast are here. In this episode we share a trio of recent mishaps: a yard project that didn’t go as planned, an anniversary gift that slipped away, and an unfortunate incident that nearly broke Sherry’s finger. We also speak with the owner of a fabric and upholstery business to get practical advice on curtain mistakes to avoid, cost-saving strategies, and current textile trends.
