14)Dried Papaya.
No one uses this barn anymore and because of that, it’s fallen into a little bit of disrepair in the last few years.Word on the street is that this barn is probably actually about 100 years old, and was built by ship-builders, so it has a lot of really interesting and pretty construction inside.. We used a few different components of the barn in our beverage center, as well as some new pine boards from The Home Depot.
The big chunky legs are just pieces of roof support that had blown off with a big section of the roof last year..The counter top for the beverage center as well as the skirting around the top came from some of the siding that has been blown off.Actually, that siding has been used in quite a few projects around here, and also in the homes of a lot of the neighbors.
It’s become kind of a community-use barn around here.So we made our plan, gathered our barn wood, and then we got to building!
We had to get this whole project completed in less than a weekend and I would say that, for the most part, a project like this would be considered a pretty reasonable thing to aim to accomplish in a weekend.
We built some extra trays, which might be pushing it a bit time-wise for the beginner DIYer, and I would suggest leaving the wood staining part for a separate weekend if it’s not something that you do often, because you want to do a really good job of finishing your work of art.Remove from the heat and ladle into hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch of head space.
Place the new lids on top of your jars and close them up with the metal bands until they’re just finger tight.Process in a boiling water canner for 5 minutes.
See how easy that was?.I only made 4 jars because I had these really pretty little jars that came with my kit, but I could have probably made 6-8 little jelly jars from this recipe quite easily.
