Hi Blog Friends,
After all the rain on Thursday, the sun showed itself on Friday and I got to do some woodworking for a change.
I was looking through A Primitive Place magazine and found some patterns I wanted to try.
The first one was making a primitive style soap holder.
Last summer I purchase a bin of old pelt stretchers and have been wanting to do something really unique with them. Once I seen the pattern for the soap holder, I knew right away what I could use to make them.
I purchase some old wood bowls from the thrift store a few weeks ago and hadn't got around to priming them yet. Glad I didn’t.
So, what do you think? I love how it turned out! I even made the old grungy soap to go in it.
And since I was on a roll, I tried my hand at making a primitive style hanging candle holder.
I even made the grungy candles! I love how old world it turned out too.
It was so nice to get to do some wood crafts for a change. I can’t wait til the weather stays warm so I can do some of the other wood crafts I have planed.
Gotta go put these in my selling booth! Have a great weekend!
Prim Blessings, Jean
Ps. please say a prayer for all the people whom have had so much devastation in their lives these past days.
They are FAB Jean!! I love the soap bowl holder...how did you get the bowl attached? Way Cool!

Jean, you know you are tempting me. You do an awesome job with whatever you touch. I love them both. I am going to have to pinch myself to stay away from your booth for awhile. I don't know if I can take it.

I have been contemplating this soap dish/bowl for some time, waiting for it to be warm enough to work in my unheated garage! I have planned to use a bread board. I have never seen these pelt stretchers before. They are pretty cool. I really love the candle holder. Where did you find a tapered rod?
