Keeping Up With Kirbys

I seriously don't know what I'd do without my neighbors. I currently have nice garage lights, a supply of repurposed wood, saw blades, saw horses and I'm sure countless other tools that my neighbors have supplied me with.  I probably drive them crazy!   These past few days I've been busy making pencil holders in my garage for several different people.  You can order here   or contact me by email . And then look what I did???  After all my hard work I went out to spray a clear protective laquer on it.  Uh huh, that is NOT clear...that is white!!  Why would they make a white protective coat?? I almost cried. HERE'S A TIP: ALWAY LOOK AT THE CAP OF SPRAY PAINT BOTTLES. Y'all....every night I'm sitting on the couch with "ice on my wrist" AND NOT THIS KIND OF ICE! I'm talking about the COLD ice that starts to burn after awhile.  Do you want to know why?? Well, for every hole in that pencil holder I have to drill...

Well, it's not really Christmas and if you ask Josh he would say that he has received what would be equivalent to coal for some people... 😁 Especially when he was helping pull nails from all of these.  Yes, this is a TON of scrap wood.  My neighbor, the one who gave us garage lights, gave me a trailer FULL of scrap wood.   I'm super excited BUT also a little overwhelmed.  I normally have 8-9 pieces and have to get really creative if I want to make something.  {{$35 dollars plus shipping - click  here  to purchase 1ftX2ft with hanger on back to hang on wall}} This Texas sign was my last project I made with all my scraps.  I loved how it turned out! I think it would look great with a heart burned in it where you live...or where someone you love lives.  Last week I attempted to make a giant Jenga for the classroom.  Well, I didn't measure my pieces across the top and just decided to cut each piece 10...
