Yesterday was my first day of woodworking class. Even though I’m still a little frustrated with the boxes I need to finish I’m starting to get excited about this semester. My priorities this term are
- Finish the jewlery boxes.
- Make myself a cutting board. (Last year I made some for Christmas gifts and liked how they turned out. But I ended up not having one left over for myself and I’d like one.)
- Make a toy for E. I found plans online for the toys below and think they’re cute AND doable. E is mad for anything with wheels and so I think he’d really like this bulldozer.
I don’t know if I’ll finish all three projects but I’m pretty sure I’ll at least get 1 and 2 done (famous last words, I know). I’m a pretty slow worker because I tend to make a lot of mistakes. I guess we’ll just have to see. I’ll try and take pictures and post about my progress as it goes.
Those are adorable! I'm excited to SEE your projects. 🙂
I love how you do this, faith. It's really awesome to me that you take the time to learn how. I'm excited to see your posts on these as you get going on them.
A woodworking class would be so much fun. Some day I will inherit all my father's tools and woodworking machines. And I adore the cutting boards you made last year. If I saw a board like that in the store I'm sure I wouldn't be able to put it down.
I love the bulldozer! Can't wait to see your finished product.
