My latest project!!


started this stupid things weeks ago then with josh and life.. it just got put off..
then I discovered.. AFTER my first sketch was drawn and the wood cut.. It was not going to be what I wanted..
so I sketched again.. went and had more wood cut.. only to discover.. it cant be built like that! (this is where a carpenter would laugh his buns off at me)
so 3rd sketch and a tetris of sorts of the cut wood.. this is what I have.. it was suppose to be a wall of cubes.. like a cubed book shelf kinda thing.. *coughs* well.. maybe in my next project..lol
this also was suppose to STAND..lol but when I asked hubby to hep me assemble.. he crabbed the warped wood.. so its the leaning tower of paper now.. which is FINE.. he helped.. so I don care! it can lay just as easy as it can stand!!
but this will hold ALSMOST all my 12x12 papers..lol yea.. hubby is not thrilled at my amount of stuff gather again.. but I tried to show him.. I've been taking things out of where they were so I can SEE them..
so I think my next project is to make myself a desk/work table.. and then attempt those darn cube things again..lol

Another wild hair...

So I was looking around today at all the Fall sales and stuff.. and saw some pumpkins that I really liked.. so I came home and made something KINDA like them.. I dont like the large base but it was too easy to tip without.. and I didnt want to cut a new base so I grabbed a scrap I already had laying around.. Had many people email and ask.. WHATS THIS MADE OF?? Its a end cut from a 2x4!~ I had a scrap laying around and went to work carving and cutting..
