Spring Fling progress

by brae Email

I've been working hard on the Spring Fling and am eager to share what I've been working on!  :D  I'm hoping all the prep work I've been doing will make the build go quickly once I have the structure glued together.  Yes, that's right...29 days to go and I still don't have it glued together!  :O  But, a lot of the things I am doing are easier to accomplish with flat boards.  I hope to have the structure glued together in the next day or two...then it's all finishing from there.  I should be okay with time, but I am definitely feeling the pressure!

Here's one bit I can show you: the finished hearth for the fireplace.  It's made of the same Greenleaf vinyl tiles as the fireplace with strip wood finishing the edges.

I am in awe of your work!! It's all brilliant - I'd be thrilled if I could achieve something as skilled as this. *bows*

I know what you mean about feeling the pressure, I'm right there with you. I keep working away at it every day, crossing my fingers I can get everything done that I want to before the deadline.

Your fireplace and hearth look great, I can't wait to see the finished project.

Oh my goodness, friend. If I ever make it to your neck of the woods, you will probably need to hide this piece. :D And if it goes missing.... well, it wasn't me. &#59;)

Gah! Why isn't it time yet?!?!?!
