I am having so much fun increasing my knowledge and skill level when it comes to working with wood. I have always had an interest in creating things with wood but never had the time to put that interest into action. Since the success I had with building an IPad holder for my husband’s cooking classes, I have been rolling ideas through my mind on things that I can now create using wood.
