Did You Know That Columbus Has A Tool Library? 🛠

Sponsored by Easton Town Center. For over 20 years, Easton has brought families and friends together to celebrate the magic of the holidays. While things may look differently this year, we hope you’ll visit and experience an enchanted holiday season at Easton. Easton's number one priority is keeping guests and workers safe. 

Check out this link to learn more safety measures and more on what they have planned for the holidays this year. ❄️🎄

Happy Thursday! Chelsea here.

One common thing I've noticed among my friends and family this year is that everyone seems to be really digging into home projects. Whether it's finally putting up that privacy fence, building an awesome new patio, or getting some work done on the inside of the house, we've all been spending more time at home, so it's natural that we'd want to make home a little bit nicer. But that's easier said than done when you don't have a garage full of tools to complete your projects. So if like me, your neighbor is getting sick of you borrowing random tools (shout out to Stephen, aka the best neighbor ever) you may want to look into visiting the ModCon Living Tool Library. We've got all the details here.

P.S.

Please send pictures of your DIY projects. I love to see them!

Nothing says "cozy sweatpants weather" quite like indulging in a handful (or two, we're not judging) of tater tots. Columbus knows how to make some delicious potatoes, but in my humble opinion, tater tots are king. Who's hungry?
