I’m JUST about to call bull$h!t on reclaimed wood.

Love the storied feel of reclaimed wood—companies supplying pretend vintage wood have even sprung up—but 9 grand for a table made out of an old snow fence? AN OLD SNOW FENCE? I don’t mean to be all “my kid could’ve painted that,” but my mom will be very disappointed she hasn’t been storing all her (apparently priceless) rickety old pickets all these years.

    Ummm…are we sharing reclaimed wood confessions? I paid a farmer east of the city $120 to rip wood off his old dilapidated barn in the middle of winter…while my husband helped. Still have the wood, no project. The things we do for love? (shakes head shamefully)
