Teaching window restoration is a funny business. Just when I feel like I'm making strides toward reaching my entire audience, I start getting questions that remind me that it's time to start all over. That's because new readers are jumping in all the time. Recently, I asked a question on Instagram. In essence, the question…

Three weeks ago, a couple of days into self-isolation, there was a funny meme going around about how we should all stop mopping and shining our floors because that was a "day 15 of quarantine task." It was too soon for such a painstaking chore. Now that about twenty days have passed, it does feel…

I promised the reveal today, and I almost did not make my deadline. Photography is a nightmare in these teeny tiny spaces. (Note to self: Get rich and hire a professional photographer for all of your projects.) In the beginning, I wasn't sure where I was going with this overhaul. After all, on a smaller scale,…
