morning ladies, another wet day but the sun is trying to poke through. 100 pages! Good grief that has come around quick!
The chess board sounds lovely, OHH. Well done on the sanding and oiling. Rice bran oil is another you can use too. MrK melted some beeswax, mixed it with a little linseed oil and let it set to a soft set, and uses it on the finished wooden goodies he makes. It took a bit of fiddling around to find the right ratio but he seems to have that sorted.
Today is housework day. Might as well as it will be raining. Tomorrow the weather gods promise a fine day so I'll be pruning the roses. The clematis is going berserk and will need repotting soon. It's still flowering so will wait for it to finish. And I still have some other seedlings to plant out but it is far too cold and wet to do that.
I found some dripping at Countdown yesterday so will make some bird pudding today for the birds. Only problem is I hate the smell of the dripping melting.
Happy crafting
