27th August 2024,
I was intending to take things a bit easier today, I had two tops for side tables to finish, that would be enough.
But things didn’t work out that simple. I got side tracked into modifying the old bench to fit into the new greenhouse.
Kelli had to paint wash a top and drawer fronts, but it wasn’t going well. The heat of the day didn’t help, we needed a plan B.
We didn’t have a plan B and the pressure was building up as we promised these two dressers would be finished mid week.
The finish we were going for was to match a piece they had already bought, but some of the timber was not the same so the colour wouldn’t match anyway.
Kelli eventually contacted the buyer and got a concession which was a bit of a relief.
I managed to get the bench finished and installed, and as we expect rain tonight it was important to get all the stuff back inside the new enclosure.
A dip in the pool was a welcomed escape from the craziness.
