How much wood would a wood chuck chuck….
I don’t know ask Norm - lol - Look at our lovely wood cart! Our house is a bungalow, heated with a lovely wood stove. The stuff we have learned about wood is amusing - and how much wood we need per day- our new cart lasts 2 days - unless it’a a -30 or more- then it might be 2 carts.
It took one year of thought. It has wheels so we simply wheel it out to the porch when empty and back in when full - super light & easy to move. It holds our cooking tools - we heat most left overs on the wood stove, it also has the cleaning tools we use most - handy dandy. The top was made from an old cedar door we had - as well as our outdoor coffee table! Reduce & reuse & recycle.
One side holds kindling/fire starters the other logs to last a couple of hours.
On an average day no matter the temperature outside - I get the stove cranked!- Therefore we open the windows & bring in fresh air - god for the mind & body. It took a year of learning how we use our stove to create the most efficient cart - if only we had the luxury of time to 'research' all things...
Many of us do have more time, what are you creating?
The next cart will be a bit fancier- it will have a top with a raw edge like my new coffee table & end table! He’s so handy - what a creative team we be. Thank God.
It’s made our life easier & our home lovelier ;). Inspired by love we will not fail.
This spring we start trails, Norm will stock more wood for the winters to come - living here, with a wood stove it needs to be a regular chore- CHOP wood & carry water. Thankful to do so - EVERY DAY! Time to LOG off so I can LOG on’ and open the windows on this gorgeous day!
