It's approaching the end of May. Everything is in hyperdrive. Here are a few key points.
-We bought our first house. Well, mostly. We are under contract and will close in mid-June. Packing and prepping ensues.
- My job has given me an official closing date of June 30th. After that, I have no idea what I will be doing.
-The guy finished the spring semester and moved into summer semester. His courses are only 6 weeks each, which means he is spending most of his free time hunched in front of the computer.
The one benefit of all of these things piling up like this is that I'm finding that I have extra time and room on the weekends to work on my half-finished projects.
First off, the window panel. I posted a picture of it in my last post, and said I'd have it done by the end of the week. This, of course, didn't happen. A big factor was the fact that I had an impossible time finding something to put in the big open section on the bottom. This week, I finally found something...
I have made a lot more progress since this picture from Thursday, but it's not quite finished yet, mostly due to the fact that the piece of whiteboard is just slightly too long. It WILL be done tomorrow, and I refuse to post a picture of it until it is.
Secondly, the subway sign. This is a new project that I started about two weeks ago and is still unfinished.
I had an old piece of particle board from the back of an old tv stand. I put 1/2 yard of remnant fabric underneath and trimmed around the edges.
I pulled the edges around the board tightly and attached using a hot glue gun.
I've started the words that I want on the front, but I don't know what to do to finish. Thoughts?
Thirdly, there's the numerous canvases that are sitting in my closet and on my floor in the spare bedroom. I'm not sure if I need to hang them, gift them, cover them and start again, or just pitch 'em. I am running out of room for them, but hate the idea of just throwing them out. Any idea of how I can use these in a more effective way?
Any input is appreciated. I will most definitely be putting up pictures of my finished window panel tomorrow.
