Pirate Sailboats


 Made nine sailboats for a child's pirate themed birthday party.  The sailboats were a big hit.  I've since made a tenth sailboat for a guest's sibling (to keep the peace).
3/4" pine cut on the bandsaw and shaped on the disc sander.  Mast is a 3/8 dowel 8" in length set a third, the length (8") of the boat, from the bow.  The sail has a pocket for the dowel and a pipe cleaner sewn to make the boom.  The kids had fun painting their pirate ships.


Hallway Art Display


 Took these photos the day I installed the kids art hanger boards.  This gives the kids their own space, in our main hallway, to display their works of art, drawings, paintings, colourings, etc.




Cut boards to length, rounded edges, counter sunk screws holes, painted white, and hot glued some painted clothes pins.
