I believe it would take a lot of patience to get the sizing right. But it would be fun to try doing it! | ||||

Now that is some nice wooden needles and hooks! Give Dh the sanding job. You did the first part, he can help! | ||||
| Miss Kitty |
 Not my Hubbie.. He doesn't have the patience for sanding. The furniture in the house that he made is sanded by me.. The 2 shelves that I didn't sand, the dust cloth snags when you try to dust it...

Just like a guy! LOL! That's funny, cause on all the home improvement jobs we have done, I am the measuring person, the sander, prep person, painter, caulker. All those jobs that take attention to detail. DH just cuts things with the saw! Hmm, maybe I should delegate and I do the cutting. Heck it's power tools, I can run those! hee hee hee! | ||||
| Miss Kitty |
Yea, Hubbie says "Ill go and cut this piece be right back". then he gone for 1/2 hour..Like did you get lost?? Couldn't find your way to the garage?? My come back is " You should have taken a left in Albuquerque.."
