Despite the rain, finally head back home to Brooklyn after three weeks of travels.

Started a new DIY project: a vertical window garden. Started with 1″ x 5″ pine boards and assembled a shelf for each window.

Stained the shelves with Miniwax (Early American) and finished with two coats of shellac.

The finished product!

The most creative dog poop bag dispenser I have ever encountered. Seen in Red Hook, Brooklyn.
