Parquetry

I was making it for the very first time, so I worried that it wouldn’t go well. Luckily I was wrong, I made few mistakes – I needed to draw the plan on the floor (forgive my English) but didn’t do it. In the end I had to make over some parts.

After first try, I go through photos of Russian palaces and houses, I wish I could make such great ornaments too!

On Sunday…

My hubby bought me Proxxon mini-lathe. I’m so happy. I just need to buy some chisels and scrapers, can’t wait to try it!

Also I bought scrollsaw, tried it in action. Works smoothly and cuts everything I need.

So, maybe this week I’ll buy some more veneer and basswood.
