What you need to know about building with salvaged wood

Curious about building with salvaged wood? MyFixitUpLife’s hosts Mark & Theresa are joined by expert salvaged woodworker Pauline Henderson from My Altered State to share essential tips to perfecting your next salvage project.

From stunning wall art to refinishing furniture, and pretty much everything in-between, Pauline’s building with salvaged wood work has been featured on Food Network and featured on Dremel’s website.

Pauline is a woodworker, crafter, and fix it myself-er. She supports the belief that things can be altered to fit our needs, and always looking for opportunities to send something back into circulation.

Her dad built the house her family lived in with his own two hands after work and on the weekends, and Pauline grew up around the tools and the construction.

She’s a supporter of compulsive remodeling decisions, and not just talking about her own house.

“I discovered that I like finding value in seemingly insignificant things. If I could impress upon anyone one thing, it would be that things can change to be something different. Something better. Nothing has to stay insignificant,” Pauline Henderson of MyAlteredState.co
