My New Best Friend

Ah, the smell of sawdust and the soothing sound of my Dear Dremel! I love it!



This was the first time I had used my Dremel. It takes some practice. Letting the tool do the work was the hardest part for me. Once I figured that out it was sheer joy!




I was able to shape the arms and side rails for my chairs with ease.

MY Dremel is back in the charger of a while. I'll probably use it to sand my pieces too. Then I can start painting! :D

I'm thinking now that I'll paint them in lighter, but still tropical colors. The weathered look became too much of a challenge and I really didn't like what I came up with.

It is 24 degrees here in Alabama this morning. We're expecting snow this afternoon. Tonight more snow and then ice tomorrow. I'm hoping that our office will close so I can stay home and finish my chairs! :D

Hope you have a lovely day!

Dear Dremel

I purchased a little Dremel tool a while back. It's a basic, cordless tool with a few accessories. I haven't used it yet but have great plans for it!

I'm at the point with my swinging beds to attach the rope. So, I hopefully got out my dear Dremel to drill holes in the bed frames. Sadly, the kit I bought does not include drill bits! Another trip to Lowe's or find another way! I just might have an idea here....

If it works I should have some photos to post later? Unless I get distracted again...

Hope you have a good day!

Blessings, Kathi
