Thursday Morning, No Sleep and caffeine fueled....School Holidays are a bit of a grind, to broke to do anything with kids due to bad planning and bad weather.... A quick spin to Bathurst tomorrow to drop the kids off, not sure what to do after that. Need a few things a hardware shop, well I need a lot of things at hardware store, but I will make do with what I can afford.
So today I have done a little boxing..... I will never make the money back on the time it took, but at this stage it is more about developing ideas and technique's. Making money from the stuff I am making is not essential at the moment, I have sold a few pictures, not anything I like, but peoples taste is peoples taste. This box is more my taste, it started out as a very beaten up 1940's or 50's HB pencil box, I sanded and re-glued the veneer....
With a spare bolt from the chair project as a handle and a vintage Chinese coin as embellishment, and a lot polishing....
and of course a bit of work on the inside....
and a nice little vintage box to put something in.....Lets see what else we can do today.
