IT'S GOING TO BE A LONG WEEK

Waiting .............................


I spoke with Master Carpenter this morning and the new "Due" date for the table looks like next Friday, January 22nd. He has the top to stain, varnish...and then..... DRY. Just love waiting for that drying stage.... Endless !!!!

As I write this, my "Mentor", Kenneth Brown, is having a Meet and Greet with his Fan Club in LA!! Master Carpenter and I had hoped to attend, but were unable to make the journey. A fellow club member, (and Blog reader) Carol Wheeler from New Hampshire, is acting as my Representative. I can't wait for pictures and a full report of the afternoon.

A few months back I had a project I never posted. This seems like a good afternoon to share it with you.

We had display cabinets purchased at Ikea years ago for our condo in Norfolk. They were perfect for our Asian treasures. These pieces have found new homes in our place here and the cabinets were not being used. I decided to see if they fit in the guest room closet. Actually it was easier than tearing them apart. That is a big hassle. To my delight they fit !!! So then I thought they needed a "function". Got the Epiphany thing and Presto they were converted for a home for guest towels, extra bedding and toiletries .

Take a peek and see what you think. Some day Master Carpenter can build a "dream" closet for these items. Meanwhile our Ikea cabinets have a very functional new purpose....

GREAT FUNCTION

  2. Patty ALWAYS has good ideas!! I think the guest bedroom looks like it belongs in a Hyatt Regency. It is always fun waiting to see what is next for Patty and Master Carpenter :)
