If you’ve ever had fresh homemade ice cream, this picture should hit you right in that part of the brain where childhood memories are enshrined.
A terrible thing happened to ice cream since the above White Mountain ice cream maker was first forged. Today most ice cream ingredient labels lead with “modified milk ingredients” – and it’s becoming harder and harder to find ice cream made with cream.
Most people don’t know the most important service a bed frame provides.
A bed frame raises the mattress off the ground to dry out all the sweat you eject into your mattress each night. If this moisture builds up too much over time your mattress can turn into a perfect new world for colonies of mold and mildew.
But like most things, bed frames are overpriced. I once saw a solid wood bed frame for over $1000! If you want a bed frame for less than 40$ with the added bonus of having more storage space then you’ll ever need, build it with 5 gallon buckets!

Every notice that English has too many words? Take greenhouse for example – A greenhouse is just a fancy term for a box, made of glass or plastic, that allows sunlight through, and keeps heat in and wind out.
Once you boil it down like that, you’ll realize that you’ve got all kinds of thing kicking around that can be rigged into greenhouses.
And it’s high time that we discuss bucket greenhouses. These bucket greenhouses are sheltering seedlings through those delicate first few weeks of plant growth.
In our Gardening with 5 Gallon Buckets video, we show off these amazing hanging buckets strung between laundry posts. They were invented by a clever renter who wasn’t allowed to dig up her back yard for a garden, so hung one above it instead.
