Uncinetto Polso Scaldini

Double post day!  The silence of the last two weeks was due to everything ever being due at once.  Since that time has now past, I get to show just what I've been up to.

I started these back in April with the caveat that I may only work on them in my art history class.  It kept me awake, and now I've got some lovely crochet done.

These were from a pattern, which I had to modify to accommodate my tiny wrists, and then added a modified trim, because nothing is ever pretty enough for me.

Saturday I bought several pieces of kinda broken furniture from the thrift store for a total of $20.  For another $20 I got everything I needed to fix them and went to it.  I got a coffee table with an unpardonably ugly top, which I promptly tacked wooden place mats to, which reminded me rather of Trading Spaces, but what can you do.  I also got a charming side table who's drawer came in 3 pieces, and a couple of chairs who's legs were coming apart.  There's nothing quite like fixing things to feel accomplished.
