But I did pick up this birch log off our street today, came down off of one of our neighbors trees. I do love the look of birch but not yet sure what I am going to do with it yet. But I pledge to use it for something. Just couldn't pass it up.
It may be three feet long and probably ten inches in diameter at its thickest. I am sure there are tons of ideas on Pinterest, but if anyone has any bright ideas feel free to pass them along.
But so far I am excited about this little plan of many projects. One could say I am a little obsessed right now. But isn't that how we always start something out that we want to do? I am just hoping that I have the staying power to keep on going.
I think my Pinterest interest has been boosted. I am always going on looking for creative and unique projects. The problem with it is there are way to many. I can't decide, that's the hard part, deciding. When I started this I thought the actual doing would be hard. And even though I am only one project deep I am finding the deciding to be feeling that way for me right now. Also I am cruising on craigslist free page and actually reading my freecycle e-mails to see what I can score. But that's harder still without a clear idea of a project, because there is so much crap out there.
Ah well I think that's it for me, we will see what fun ideas pop into my head next, or I find on the web, or someone tells me. Still excited.
Perhaps for a bookend - like on a bookshelf? Might take some carving/sanding
ReplyDeleteThat is a good idea and I may end up doing something like that. Good thing is I have enough wood for multiple things.
