Here in Gloucester, we have the world famous Lobster Trap Tree. Using this iconic holiday symbol of the Gloucester and Cape Ann, I design and build miniature lobster traps and turn them into wreaths and Christmas tree ornaments. They are available for sale. Please contact me. $80 - Wreath with Rope Bow. Rope can be either red or white. $100 - Wreath with Rope Bow and Battery Operated Lights. $10 (two for $15) - Lobster Trap ornament (green, blue or yellow) Shipping and handling extra.
I helped Linda rescue her bulkhead before it got too worse. I ripped out the rotted jams and removed the rusted hinges on the bulkhead doors and jams. I replaced them with Koma trim (Koma is a PVC, or hard plastic, board that cannot rot; it also doesn't need to be primed before painting). I installed them with stainless steel screws, and new hinges. I added a break board to ensure the door doesn't flop open from left over wood - an added a hook-n-eye clasp to keep the other door sopen and "not bang on her head." I also cleaned her gutters and installed a Gutter Guard cover them to make sure the leaves would not clog them again. COST: $80 labor | $80 supplies = $160 TOTAL
