Last night was great at Home Dining Room, dinner was tasty!I finished my Hoooked Zpagetti cushion and garter stitch blanket.
On the weekend I made this pallet stool/table when I was at the farm.
I have really taken to woodworking ever since I saw DIY Furniture a few weeks ago and have plans to make the wardrobe and sideboard from the book. I also like the light and there is a trolley sunbed that is very clever!
Woodworking is a whole new world of possibilities x One that I am thrilled to have discovered.
Stephanie loves a bit of working with timber too. She owns a jigsaw and started making beautiful wooden boxes last year.
Lucky my husband is into tools and has drills, saws, jigsaw, planes, chisels e.t.c otherwise it would have been a bit of a big investment/expense starting up my new hobby! Although it's worth it, I really enjoy it!
The pallet stool came from a title One Block of Wood which we can stock for $15.00. It's a great little book. Whether you're new to woodwork, or an old hat, all you need is a bit of wood that you'd like to use up or just be curious to discover what you can create.
Nina Tolstrup has devised 15 simple, beautifully made projects from one block of wood. She demonstrates the versatility of wood with ideas ranging from a stylish Garden Bird Feeder (which I have started) to a sturdy Doorstop and Herb Box.
Measure twice, cut once is my new motto!
I really like your table. You should be very proud of youself!
