Last weekend my dream came true.... with the help of my dear hubby we managed to make my DIY craft stand, stands proudly (thus the name, eh?)...
took us 3-4 days to complete...
Day 1...
hunting for materials and wood cutting and sanding the surfaces...sanding took a few hours...i did it manually with the help of my lil gal...
Day 2...
relax day....well... drilling is not what i can tackle on my own yet...and hubby was not free.....
Day 3...
drill, drill, drill until we can see smoke coming out from the holes...hehehe
then, putting everything together....not an easy task.. as the holes we drilled are not big enough for the bolts...reasons...we dont have the right drill bits...
Day 4...
still trying to fix this and that...to make the clamp mouth work...i got sore fingers from handling the bolts, nuts and screws...
but all the hard work paid off... we are so proud of ourselves....
look..everybody ...my craft stand, STANDS!!! And it works...(tho' it wobbles a little..)
oh... i added that pattern holder and a pincushion to make my life easier..
well...now i need a place to hang my scissors too....hmmm...
Note: My gratitute to Mus, Lindt and Dania...guys, you made this project possible..
