Well it was a busy and exciting day
in the shop today. It was an epic journey of oiling our first headboard. It started
off with the kids both working in the shop on their projects and Tim & I
finishing up polishing the edges and doing the final bit of polishing with steel
wool. Then it was time, it was me, Hair Nation on XM Satellite radio and 1
gallon of oil…. It took 4 hours to soak, wipe down and dry the headboard, I
must say that it was one of the most exciting yet relaxing projects to have
worked on, nothing can explain how it feels or looks to watch the wood grain
come to life in a piece of wood such as this, AND to be the first one to see it.
There were a few moments when I wanted to run in the house and have Tim come
look at it, but I wanted to have it all to myself. All I can say is WOW, this is
a beautiful piece and I believe our clients will be very pleased with it. I am envious
that it is going to another home, yet proud and excited for them to have it. We are thankful for the opportunity to work on a project such as this and to
work with a piece of wood that has left me speechless.
