Happy Friday, everyone!
No indoor plumbing..The two additions on either side were added on about 80 years ago and 40 years ago.. Alot of families tend to stay in this area and often they can remember or trace back who has lived where for many generations.
We’ve heard quite a few stories about who has lived in our house, or who was born here and what life was like.Some of those stories, I just don’t need to hear.. About 80 years ago, a family was living in the house.At the time, it was fashionable for all the old farmhouses to add on big giant kitchens and the wife of the family wanted one too..
Her husband refused, as husbands do, but eventually she got her way.They started on the big project of adding onto their little farmhouse.
It looks like this is the time when they got indoor plumbing and electricity as well.
The stairs to the basement were even boarded up and a new back hall leading downstairs was added on.So he just stapled into the frame of the mirror, with the flat head screwdriver under the staple gun, creating a little gap between the frame and the top of the staple!.
He did that on both side of the frame and then was able to use those to anchor a hanging wire!So clever, right?.
Now you’ll never have to go scrounging for those little packs of hanging hardware again!.Hope this one will be useful to you the next time you need to hang something!.
