No harsh chemicals like Muriatic acid, *instantly pulls out paint stripper which is a base equivalent of HCL*, lol, handy hint with the bleach tho.

This is a GREAT and Beautiful video…
Note: next time leave out the background music or turn it down lower… You have a beautiful soft voice and the background music made it hard to hear you at times. We just want to HEAR YOU Talk.
Thank you for sharing this great video.

I need help on my vinyl record hanging planters. I put a twine through the holes to hang them together. I was thinking about just screwing them on a board from an old picket fence and hang the board like a swing as an alternative.
