Getting Closer





To the end of this project that is. Matt and I worked on Jerome's fence again yesterday. We are nearing the end of fabrication with just a few finishing touches left, hopefully we will be able to knock those out and start painting the fence soon. Once the paint dries we will be ready to install. This is a shot of the post caps that are on top of every post save the two gate posts. and this is Matt mugging for the camera( he hates those safety glasses). Click for a better look.

Pewter


Another wind chime! This piece was commissioned by a friend, and all the parts are from his own collection. The tea pot is pewter and is a design that I haven't run across yet. The chime is the top of a pewter sugar bowl, it has an interesting onion shaped knob on top. All four spoons are also pewter. Three of the four spoons are are from places that he visited in his life and the fourth one was a spoon from a set of pewter dishes that his grandson used as a baby.
