YES! I have drivel today! 😂😊
A little while ago I asked Steve if he could build me a new work table, to replace the large trestle I usually work on. NOT a desk for sewing on, a table for cutting, doing lay outs on etc.
I wanted something that I could move in and out from the wall easily, so on castors. Something I could put boxes under to store projects, fabrics etc on.
I couldn't do any of that with a trestle.
Steve started work on it yesterday.
Today he will be working on making the shelving under it. I am so excited to see it in place, and use it.
I will probably paint it... dreaming of pastels, and measurements marked on the top as well.
It is going to be so damn handy and useful.
I'm so lucky Steve is such a dab hand at building shit.
OH that's right, he's a qualified builder eh? lol
While he is now the Manager of a building company, and not doing the manual building as such, he's not lost his touch.
Stew and I might have to move all the shelving out of the garage to get the new unit in... so later on we might be a bit busy.
At least we won't be bored.

Oh Chris, you are so lucky!! I need a "Steve" to be my son! I have a married daughter and she's pretty handy, and an 18 year old grandson who now lives with my husband and I, but he doesn't build things. I was planning to fix up my craft room this new year and get busy on my crafts, but that would involve spending money. And the husband said flat out "NO". He wants me to just pack up my whole craft room and then use the room for storage!! It makes me cry to just think about having to do that! That's why I wish I had a son like Steve! Always so willing to help his mom so she can create and be happy in her home! And Lacy too! She's a strong young lady and so sweet to her mom! Sorry, didn't mean to vent! Was just hoping for a better start to the new year. And when I saw your table that Steve made, it made my hurt that I can't catch a break around here. But I sure get a lot of inspiration for doing things from your blog!! You are so damn organized!! I still say you should be a home organizational coach or something!! Happy New Year!!
ReplyDeleteLol love the message AND THE DESK. WOW Steve thinks of everything. The one thing I'd like on mine now is a ruler holder! Like a container to be hung on the side of the desk to hold all my rulers kjstanding up so it doesnt have to be wide.
