Killer Filler Friday: A Hose in a Box!

Hi all! A few weeks back I wrote about the sad state of my hose in the backyard, and suggested I'd be doing a lil' review of my CSN experience buying a Hose Hideaway Reel to remedy the situation. Well it arrived on my doorstep last week two weeks ago! Along with the Groundhog Day DVD I won from XLMIC;-):

And I'll be honest, when the box arrived it wasn't at the top of my list to get outside and put in it's proper place. So it remained inside for a bit (uh...weeks), and became a makeshift stage for my kids to perform on for a few nights:

Then, one morning it had moved rooms and had become a table for their teddy bear's birthday party:

Then later, it became an art project table for my lil' A (don't have a pic of that one...)And while this Hideaway Reel box was havin' a good ol' time inside the house, I felt after 2 weeks, it needed to pony up and get outside to perform it's true job:

So thar she stands today. The outside hose has been tamed and contained in this good ol' box. And I think it looks pretty good. Although I actually haven't had to use it yet, as it's been pouring over here all week! 


So my experience with buying and receiving this hose reel box was fine. Speedy delivery and EZ check out process. I'd buy from CSN again. 


And I'm also glad to know that it can perform triple duty anytime as an outside stage slash party table slash project center. That is what makes this box truly the bomb!;-)
Happy Friday All! Here's to some happy running/biking/swimming this weekend!
