At the moment, I'm working on a standing shelf that my wife wants for on top of her night table. I'm making it from a rough cut piece of walnut. The first 'real' wood project since shop class in high school. I'm nearly done, just a few more coats of shellac.
For my daughter, I'm making a wall mount from an old appreciation award plaque, for a deer skull that she acquired. Mahogany I think. And on deck are a few more ukulele hangers from birch plywood.
Oh look at the time! gotta go.
On the bus!

STdragon, that is awesome. My husband..when he has time which hasn't been in a long time does a lot of wood working he has built many things including a cedar strip canoe. I had to help him steam bend the wood. I have been trying to teach my self guitar..That is not going very well. LOL
On the bus. It snowed a bit so I am bundled up.

On the bus too! SG, Yes, I have light, wavy hair, when I was younger it was more reddish/gold blonde, as I get older and with a little help from the hair dresser, I will wear it more blonde (at least until my sister got her hands on it, but that will be remedied soon). But my eyes are green. I'm the only only in my family with green eyes, except my Italian grandfather. Everyone else is blue eyed.
Genetics, etc are so interesting to me.
My internet went out for a few days, so glad to be back and hope you all are well.
Love and peace to all! 💗☮💫

Loving the idea of an Etsy shop for your hand made treasures Dragon. It’ll keep you busy in retirement, I’m sure.
Alpine helping make the canoe must’ve been very satisfying. All the best with your guitar lessons.

Dragon, I have not made any projects since I made a wooden lamp in junior high wood shop class. I thing it might still be buried in my parent's garage somewhere.
Best wishes for a nice Christmas Eve all!

Keep up the guitar, practice every day even if only for 5 minutes. My ukulele instructor would say 5 minutes a day is much better than half an hour a week. Best time to practice is is in the evening before bed time. While you sleep, your brain re-enforces those connections.
