When I moved home this summer, the first thing I did was redo my room. I wish I had taken some before pictures so that I could share the transformation. I painted walls and furniture and hung new pictures etc. total makeover. Also, I started working--but mostly evenings. Lately, during my days my hands have been itching for a new project (it's been too hot to go to the beach). I looked at my photos from my film photo class and was really missing doing darkroom stuff. I might look into getting some supplies to at least develop my own film (I have a scanner). We'll see about that. Actually, right now I have a headache and don't want to type. I just want to upload a picture of my latest project:

My dad taught me how to use his lathe and I made this pen. I added the irregular contour on purpose--gave the pen a little personality. I might make another one. The turning part was my favorite. I'm not so sure I enjoyed the saw or the drilling the hole down the center of the piece of wood. Too much potential for harm for me.
