Some rainy day crafting at ACRES. Feels good to just play around today. Here’s a little project I am making to give as gifts at an upcoming event.

I’m often asked what glass sand can be used for. A popular use is for arts and crafts projects. Here is a simple project using some basic paint colors, 3 colors of #4 sized sand, a little glue, and a mini canvas with a magnet on the back. I hope this gets your creativity flowing! glassrepurposed

I’m looking for recommendations for a professional engineer to provide an inspection of my stormwater management system in order to be in compliance. Let me know if you know someone!

What a blessing to have so many people dedicate a morning to learn about my glass recycling process at ACRES of Glass in Lecanto for Save Our Waters Week.

What a week!! Thank you to Dunamis Premium Spirits for finding us and their amazing team that worked in the hot sun (some in their dress clothes) to help us safely load and transport the glass from their facility. Thank you Love Motorsports and Love Power Equipment and Rentals that donated man power, an extra wide trailer and the use of their Giant forklift to get the job done. We couldn’t donator this without the support of our community.
