These two last weekends I have work a lot with my wood projects, and when I say a lot I mean a lot! One of the days I started to work after I had eaten lunch and didn’t stop working until I had to go to sleep because I became so tired. Think I worked 8 hours, only took some breaks to eat and drink. I can say that my hands ached when I woke up the next morning.

Have been working on one present and then I made some other things to. One ladle, some more garden decorations and one more spoon that split when I almost hade finished it. Really boring, but it happens sometimes. One thing you have to stand working with wood.

I am so happy about that I have taken the time to work with a all this projects, it feels so great. When I’m working I don’t take the time to work with my wood projects because I almost always feel like I don’t have the time. Because when I start I like to work many hours. It’s easy with knitting for example, you could knit for 20 minutes with out problem but working with wood for 20 minutes doesn’t give so much. Have to take out all the tools, have the place to work with it and so on. So I’m happy about my decision to slöjda, do handicraft, as much as possible this summer. It started out good with the course on Sätergläntan and now after half my holiday I have worked many days already. Oh, happy days!
