Wood DIY Countdown to Christmas- Rough Painting the House

Wood DIY Countdown to Christmas- Working on the Chimney
Hi everyone! It’s getting closer to Christmas, which means to me that I need to finish publishing posts about my work on my wood DIY countdown to Christmas decoration. I had plans to publish at least one post per week leading up to Christmas, but that has changed. Unfortunately, one of my relatives will have out patent surgery the week before Christmas. Because of this, I decided to publish all the posts I have completed in my Countdown to Christmas DIY this week. In this post, I will be talking about how I worked on the chimney on the house.

Wood DIY Countdown to Christmas- Sanding The Filled In Parts
Hi everyone! In my previous post about my wood diy countdown to Christmas, I mentioned that I decided to fill the areas where there are gaps and the parts of the roof that broke. After taking the photos used in the post, I sanded. And sanded. And sanded some more.

Wood DIY Countdown to Christmas- Making the Roof Break Disappear
Hi everyone! In my previous post about my wood countdown to Christmas decoration, I talked about how the roof of the house was broken. I was able to glue the broken pieces back onto the house, but the broken sections could still be seen. I also knew it would be visible even when painted. In order to make these broken areas blend into the rest of the roof, I decided to use a wood filler on the broken areas.

Wood Star DIY Sign- Plans, Materials, and Progress
Hi everyone! Last year, I got really into painting DIY wood decor. I really like the ability to customize decor to my colors and whatever style I think of. Last year, I found a star wall art at Dollar Tree. It was very pretty, but it gave me the idea to make a wall art inspired by something I used to decorate my room as a teenager. Back then, I had a star from my eighth grade promotion dance. It was simple, not super special, and was not made to last, yet I loved it a lot. The fact the dance was star inspired was also ironic. I liked looking…

Dollar Tree Sailing and Ocean Themed Wood DIY Ornaments
Hi everyone! A few years ago, I decided to start creating more customized home decor. I wanted to do this prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, but decided to after the pandemic started. What spurred my desire to make customized home decor was my worries about finding new decor made out of higher quality materials. I also wanted to do this in order to have more things I made and can display around my house. Earlier this month, I went to the Dollar Tree to see if they had any new books for sale. (I like to shop there for books) While there, I found the summer inspired decorations. They looked…

A Few Craft Projects I’m Working on Right Now
Hi everyone! Writing posts about things I make is something I really enjoy doing. Yet, there are many things I work on but never talk about online. I usually do this because I don’t really like to talk about everything I do online. I also do this because I don’t always enjoy the way everything I make turns out and want to keep it online. Despite this, I sometimes work on things and feel very proud of them enough to talk about them online. Right now, I have several craft projects I’m working on but never mentioned online. After working on them, I feel very happy with the way they…
