Teach him right from the start that all garage sale signs contain immense possibilities. That rusted metal is cool. That clutter is really a subjective word. That form is often preferable over function.
If you do these things with serious intent this is what COULD happen.
Your sweet husband could potentially come home after a trip to the lovely coffee shop on the corner (where he remembers that you take a decaf medium, soy, sugar-free milky way latte) and say...
"Quick, get your shoes on! There is a big garage sale up the street and they are selling antiques!"
AND
You could then buy a cool rusted metal object like a big, rusty cultivator wheel to turn into a rose trellis.
But it might...if you train him well!
Start training today!
Rusty objects are a horrible thing to waste.
Sigh.
