Hello. I'm back,, well I haven't been anywhere actually, except to town and to Tesco and to my friends house for afternoon sherry and Christmas cake and a natter. Oh, and two dog walks, all these little jobs take up a big chunk of time. And now I have to go and do a three mile walk which will take up another hour.
So, I spent a bit of money yesterday in town, treated myself for my new hobby. Not sure how this is going to pan out, but I am getting plenty of lessons from yoootoooob. Blimey, don't they paint fast on those videos, I can't keep up with that, ha ha. It's all very well for those professionals to say it's easy to paint, but it flippin isn't. Anyway, now I have the kit I can give it a go.
My first canvas. This was a cheapie from a charity shop for 50p. I put some colour onto it with pastels which I already had, then gave it a layer of PVA glue. Nope, don't like it, I don't like pastels either, too messy, coloured dust all over the place. so try again with another idea. Apparently you need texture, so what have I got to make the surface lumpy bumpy. I know, that packet of soup mix that I am never going to use. I knew there would be something I can do with it. Even after hours of soaking and cooking it is still too darn hard to chew, so I give up with it. Stick it on this board with red paint. It's had two coats, now I have an idea to stick string on it. Watch this space.
I found these foam sheets in the craft department while browsing the £1 shops. They look mighty interesting, bright colours, it's fairly stiff foam, can be cut into shapes and stuck together, and maybe painted as well. Something will come to mind. It's best to have some supplies of materials at the ready just in case a brilliant idea materializes.
I had a browse round B & Q, not been in there for ages, I like looking around DIY stores. I wanted to get the low down on electrical tools. I have a sander but it is big and bulky, they make smaller ones now. I might at some point get a circular saw, maybe in the spring when I can get outside more often. I don't have an indoor workshop, maybe if I tidy all the wood up in the garage, I could make room in there for a bench. That's if the garage does not fall down in the next six months. Hey, maybe I could build a new garage, ha ha. In the meantime I had to buy this course sandpaper. I have plenty of fine sandpaper bought in the Woolys sale, but it takes ages to smooth a piece of wood with it. This will do the job a bit quicker.
Right, as I said, I have to go out and do my walk now, so I'll leave you to it. Enjoy your Sunday, because we have a brand spanking new year coming up. Whoooppeeee, this is the bit I like, the start of a new year.
Thanks for popping in, we'll catch up soon.
