STILL IN CHURCH

My challenges go beyond bad products, poor instructions, and incorrect order fills.
Making nice minis using "asthma friendly" products seems a contradiction in terms. Set backs (health and mini wise) get me down and tempt me to just give up. Just sit in the rocker and knit?
NOT!
The "water based" varnish ruined my faux stain on the pews and pulpit. I had to sand and scrape and start over.

As it turns out, I like the final color much better > so that is a GOOD THING. I'll use a water based  "minwax" poly for the final coat. This will have to wait for spring when I can mini outside. 

In the meantime, I unpacked all of the items I already have and displayed them. After 2 years it was nice to see some of my favorite things. The beautiful bride is by Joann Roberts. 

I "CAN" FINISH SOMETHING

6/18/09

It was a long day.

I finished the wedding in a wine glass. My friend Joanne re-made and dressed the bears and gifted me with them when my daughter got married. So I "had" to create a place for them.

I worked on wall rooms today. (curtains and faux windows for Kristina's room)

And made a couple of things for the Ori room

I made the mistake of leaving my work room door open. Snickers smelled that open door from a sound sleep. He didn't destroy anything, just made a really big mess and went back to sleep.
