Bowls!

Ok, I know this is my family blog and I'm supposed to put my wood creations on my other blog, but I'm so excited about this, that I just have to share with everyone. I just learned how to make bowls with my scroll saw!! It's so neat. Don't look too closely though, I haven't quite perfected it yet, so I won't be selling any of these until I do.
I read about it in the scroll saw magazine. The technique is developed by a fellow scrollsawer, her blog is here http://www.scrollsawbowls.blogspot.com/

So, here are some pictures of my new adventure. Now that I know this technique, I'm thinking of making a salad bowl and some smaller bowls. Maybe even some wooden utensils. This is so fun.

The Great Dirt Box

One day this dirt box will return to being a garden, but in the mean time it's a great construction site! The kids have been playing in this after school alot.

William get's really dirty but he loves it!!Sarah was busy making a "trap". She dug a really deep hole and covered the hole with a board that just barely fit. The idea was that other people would fall in if they stepped on it. .....That's my Sarah... sigh...
