LOG DRIVER'S WALTZ

Photobucket

OK, so these are obviously not the photos I promised last week but I still haven't finished that project so hopefully I can show it off, completed, in the next two or three days. In the meantime, here's a glimpse of what I got up to this weekend.

I've had this project in mind for awhile and, what with Smart Mart and Puces Pop fast approaching, have found myself much in need of a garment display rack. I think RB and I were also in need of an adventure so Saturday afternoon we took a drive out to the country in search of fallen branches and natural building supplies. We stayed away from the sugar maple lots (no need to get shot) and ended up finding some really nice pieces of wood by the side of a country road just across the Quebec/Ontario border.

Amazing what a full weekend one can make out of a windstorm, a full tank of gas, a handsaw, measuring tape, 4" screws and some addictive treats from Andalos bakery.

Like I said, this is just a glimpse of the finished project, I still have a lot of work to do. Nevertheless, hooray for things coming together so effortlessly and hooray for organic solutions.

  3. Don't be nervous! I might have a nice rack (har har) but I barely have anything to sell on it. Can't wait to see you guys there.
